Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out on geotechnical investigations in advance of a proposed development. Six trial pits, including three foundation inspection pits and three machine excavated trial pits, and two boreholes were monitored. A sequence of London Clay overlain by terrace gravels was identified as underlying brickearth and an undated soil horizon, a possible post-medieval cut feature and dump/levelling layers. Modern overburden of demolition material and concrete was observed to seal the areas of investigation. |
