Abstract: |
During early November 2010, Oxford Archaeology/Gifford (OAG) carried out a detailed archaeological excavation on a block of land between Great Chapel Street and Dean Street, Westminster, London. The fieldwork was undertaken on behalf of Crossrail on the site of the future Tottenham Court Road (Western Ticket Hall: Southern Block). The excavation revealed probable 17th century quarrying activity, which was subsequently infilled and built over by the late 19th century. There was evidence of probable 18th-19th century wheel ruts on the same alignment as a linear ditch which was cut by a timber lined pit. No evidence of Roman activity was found within the area excavation |
