Abstract:		 An archaeological monitoring exercise was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd on the former Rentokill Site at Bromley Road, Catford, London Borough of Lewisham. Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd, commissioned by CgMs on behalf of Precis Holding Limited, initially undertook a watching brief during the installation of a new service run between 26th March and 3rd April 2008. Then, between 13th May and 6th June 2008, Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd conducted an evaluation of two trenches at the site. The earliest deposits encountered were natural clay and gravel sealed by alluvial gravely brickearth deposits, found to contain residual Roman ceramic building material and one fragment of medieval pottery. Cut into the brickearth layer was a late medieval/early post-medieval channel, following a north-south alignment. The channel is very likely to be associated with the River Ravensbourne located just about 70-80m from it. A sequence of post medieval layers sealing the channel were in turn truncated by concrete foundations associated with the former 20th century library which occupied the site.
