Abstract: |
The evaluation recorded the location of the eastern stream of the Neckinger River and has provided further information regarding the extent of the higher ground that formed the Bermondsey eyot. The area was most likely marshy and uninhabitable in the Roman period and the only feature dated to this time is a substantial ditch that is thought to demarcate land affected by inundation from the higher and drier area to the east. The land remained in this state until the 18th century at which point it was suitable for horticulture. By the second half of the 18th century streets and housing had been laid out. |
