Abstract:
Schedules 9, 10 and 15 and the Environmental Minimum Requirements (EMR) of the Crossrail Bill. In January 2012, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological watching brief at the Stockley Airport Junction section of the Crossrail scheme, situated on land beside Unit 306, Stockley Close, West Drayton. The work comprised a targeted watching brief during the de-silting of Broad's Dock, an historic spur of from the Grand Union Canal. No archaeological remains, with the exception of the canal, were observed during the work. Natural geology, consisting of Langley Silts (brickearth) and underlying gravel was observed within the spoil recovered from excavation within the canal, suggesting natural geology was reached during the de-silting. In June 2012, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological watching brief at the Stockley Airport Junction section of the Crossrail scheme, situated on land beside Unit 306, Stockley Close, West Drayton. The work comprised a targeted watching brief during general ground reduction and support excavations for the Heathrow Express line. No archaeological remains were observed during the work. Natural geology consisted of Langley Silts (brickearth) and underlying gravel. In February 2013, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological watching brief at the Stockley Airport Junction section of the Crossrail scheme, situated on land to the north of the railway line encompassing HG Timbers and All Point Packaging. The work, which comprised a general watching brief during excavations for the pile caps of the Northern Viaduct, follows two previous phases of monitoring of the Stockley Airport Junction works. No archaeological remains, with the exception of an old railway line, were observed during the work. The natural geology, underlying modern concrete and made ground, consisted of Langley Silts (brickearth) and underlying River Terrace Gravel was observed in the trenches excavated in the pile cape locations and elsewhere.
