Abstract:
The work revealed a deep alluvial sequence overlying the river terrace gravels. A pollen monolith taken from this sequence indicated that the transition to dry land conditions in this part of the Thames floodplain began in the late Bronze Age/early Iron Age. Successive layers indicate that intermittent flood episodes probably occurred until the site was first occupied in the post-medieval period. Further work, in the form of an additional radiocarbon determination, was carried out to provide an age for the cessation of the organic-rich horizon. The results indicate that the duration of organic-rich sedimentation was very short spanning a maximum of 290 years which correlates to the Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age cultural periods.
