Abstract:
Geoarchaeological monitoring of site investigation works and deposit modelling was carried out at the site to investigate the nature of the sub-surface stratigraphy. A sequence of Gravel overlain by Alluvium and Made Ground was recorded. The Gravel surface in the area of the site generally lies at between 1.2 and 1.7m OD, with a surface in one borehole towards the northeastern area of the site of 0.34m OD. Given the elevation and nature of the Gravel it is interpreted as the Kempton Park Gravel of Gibbard (1985), representing either a north-easterly extension of the eyot recorded to the southwest or a separate gravel high (eyot) in this area. The Gravel was overlain by variable thicknesses (0.2-2.2m) of generally coarse-grained, mineral-rich Alluvium, typical of deposition within a fluvial environment. The surface of this unit is highly variable across the site, lying at between 3.66 and 0.54m OD (average = 2.3m OD), most likely as a result of variable extents of truncation by the overlying Made Ground (present in thicknesses of between 1 and 4.3m). There is no evidence within the Alluvium at the site for any Peat or organic horizons such as those recorded at the Wandsworth Road and Pascal Street (Young et al., 2013), 120-146 Stewarts Road (Morley, 2009) or Battersea Power Station (Branch et al., 2010) sites.
