Abstract: |
The watching brief monitored the excavation of 10 geotechical pits and 1 bore hole, in advance of the revelopment of Tolworth Court Sports area. Natural deposits were seen in all test pits and the borehole. The majority of the test pits revealed a sequence of natural sandy clay, subsoil and top soil. In Test Pit 9 layers of 19th - 20th century made ground were recorded. In Test Pit 3, however, a number of 2nd century Romano-British pottery sherds were recovered. Due to the nature of the investigation, these did not appear to be within a cut feature. However the presence of an assemblage of 14 fresh and joining sherds suggests that they are in situ. |
