Abstract:		 Four evaluation test pits were monitored. The earliest deposits (Test pit 2: 9 Old Compton Street)) possibly dated to the 17th century and consisted of a linear cut probably relating to horticultural/backyard activity. The cut could represent either a property fence boundary or a groove made for planting. Morgan's map from 1682 shows the southern area of the site as being developed, while the northern part is represented as being open land. Test pit 2 lies within the open area. Unlike other blocks in the area at this time, the buildings on this plot are aligned north-south; this again tallies with the linear cut. The cut was overlain by a deposit dating to the 18th century, contemporary with the construction of the basements. It was also clear that the 18th century cellar of 5 Old Compton Street had been backfilled in the 19th century. The rest of the test pits revealed truncation by basement construction down to natural deposits.
