Abstract:
Natural sandy gravels were cut by 2 medieval pits and a boundary ditch. A section of the main Deptford - Woolwich highway, dating back to at least the 16th century was observed running east-west to the north of the site. The edge of this was truncated by burials associated with The Mariners Cemetery. In total 17 inhumations were recorded in 7 grave cuts, with each holding 2-3 bodies. A brick built boundary wall and cellar dated to c.1800 were located in the north-east of the site. The wall separated Greenwich Park in the south from the Queen's House, to the north. To the west of the site, in the present day King William Garden foundations the crypt walls of St Mary's Church, (built in 1824), were recorded. Within the crypt the tops of nine lead coffins were observed in the base of a pipe trench. In the central and eastern areas of the site a swimming pool, initially constructed in 1833 was observed. Evidence of two alterations to the pool were revealed. Both the pool and St Mary's Church were demolished in 1936, the demolition layers of which, along with the subsequent landscaping were recorded.
