Abstract: |
The Museum of London Archaeology Service and Pre-Construct Archaeology (MoLAS-PCA) were commissioned by the Olympic Delivery Authority to analyse and record five buildings within Marshgate Lane. These buildings comprised adjoining three-storey brick-built structure with gable roof; two storey brick-built structure with a flat roof to the north-east and double-pitched roof to the south-west; three-storey brick-built structure with gable roof; two storey brick-built structure with double-pitched roof and a single storey brick-built warehouse with butterfly roof. The buildings were to be demolished in order to redevelop the site, and the archaeological investigation and a subsequent report were required as a condition of planning consent for the redevelopment. The investigation took place in November 2007. The two buildings are situated on the western side of Marshgate Lane, south of the Northern Outfall Sewer. The original structures on the site were part of a complex designed for Augustus Smith, Brush and Mat Manufacturer. By 1897, the site was divided into a number of smaller premises and let out to a variety of Industrial Companies. The first map to show a structure or structures which appear to correspond with the present-day site is the 1948 OS Map. By 1984, the structures were divided and occupied by London Analytical and Testing Laboratories, Victor Printing Company Ltd and Norwale, wire coat hanger manufacturers. The buildings were last occupied in 2007. The buildings of 39 to 45 Marshgate Lane were constructed between 1916 and 1948, replacing earlier structures located on site. The butterfly roof was added to the rear of 45 Marshgate Lane in 1968 to create a warehouse. The buildings possess late 19th/ early 20th century features and have been substantially reconstructed during their life-time, being occupied by a variety of industrial companies. |
