Abstract:		 An Archaeological Watching Brief was undertaken during water mains renewal and replacement works in the Holland Park Area, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, (Thames Water District Metering Area Barrow Hill 14). Archaeological monitoring was undertaken during contractors groundworks between February 2011 and February 2012, and consisted of the inspection and recording of all open works accessible during monitoring visits. Natural geology was observed surviving at a relatively shallow depth across the study area, as little as 500mm below the existing ground surface. It was evident from historic map evidence that the area had been largely undeveloped, existing as open fields, until the middle of the 19th century. Other than a small segment of 19th century brick wall on the corner of Kensington High Street and Addison Road no significant archaeological deposits were observed. It appears that the natural geology / original ground surface had been truncated to create level planes and then deliberately raised by dumping mixed soils prior to the development of the housing and road network.
