Abstract:
Three window samples and two boreholes were monitored. Late Pleistocene gravels were recorded across the study area, overlain by fluvial sediments of probable Late Glacial/Early Holocene provenance. The boreholes and window samples also showed a sequence of peats of possible early Holocene age with potential to preserve timber remains including track ways, wetland archaeology, revetments and sunken vessels. The entire site was capped by alluvial deposits formed during the later part of the Holocene which were in turn overlain by modern ground raising deposits. The site lies at the confluence of the Guys channel and the Borough Channel. Previous work at St Michaels School has demonstrated that these Southwark channels can preserve organic deposits dating to the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age period with high potential for palaeoenvironmental reconstruction. This is unusual within the floodplain of the middle Thames as the peat and organic deposits are usually found to accumulate after this date in the London area. The deposits recorded on the site display similarities with this sequence, and may therefore have similar levels of potential and significance.
