Abstract:
The watching brief found a number of 17th/18th century walls truncating the natural horizon which whilst discontinuous allude to the ground plan of the buildings that once stood on site. Plans detailing the hospital grounds by Sir Christopher Wren indicate that the site lies within an area occupied by a kitchen garden, orchard and an orangery, known as King William's Dining Room. In addition a number of outhouses, which included a stable yard, owned by Richard Earl of Ranelagh are known to have been present on site. It is probable that the structural elements recorded during the watching brief relate to these buildings. No archaeological deposits pre-dating the 17th/18th century were encountered during the watching brief.
