Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd undertook an archaeological investigation at 551-559 Uxbridge Road, Hayes, London Borough of Hillingdon. The watching brief monitored the excavation of drainage and foundation trenches for the new development. Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd were commissioned to undertake the work by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Howarth Homes. The watching brief followed a Specification prepared by CgMs Consulting (Dale 2007b). Prior to this, CgMs Consulting had also undertaken a desk-based assessment (Dale 2007a). The watching brief revealed natural terrace gravel overlain by silty-clay agricultural subsoil. An isolated pit of probable post-medieval date was cut into the subsoil. The site was sealed by a layer of topsoil. Numerous 19th and 20th century service trenches were seen within the upper stratigraphy of the site. |
