Abstract:
This report presents the results of an archaeological watching brief conducted by Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited (PCA) at the Moat School, Bishops Avenue, Fulham, London SW6 6EG. The site was centred at National Grid Reference TQ 24097 76386. The archaeological watching brief was conducted over thirteen days between 24th June and 19th July 2019 during groundworks on the site. Works included the removal of the entrance gateposts, the widening of the access drive and the excavation of new footings for the planned building extension. The proposed area of works was located within the Scheduled Monument for the Fulham Palace Moated Site (Designation No. 1001964) and Scheduled Monument Consent (SMC) was obtained for the proposed works.The drift geology of Kempton Park Gravels was exposed at 3.02m OD in a sondage. The natural sandy gravel layers were in turn sealed by a deposit of compact, reddish-brown-orange sandy clay which resembled a brickearth [7/17/21]. During ground reduction of the brickearth, a number of burnt flints and a worked flint was retrieved indicating that the brickearth had been reworked or redeposited. This was in line with known, seasonal prehistoric occupation of the site recorded by previous excavators. The brickearth had been cut at the west of the site by an isolated post-medieval pit [9] which was associated with three postholes; [11], [13] and [15]. All the deposits listed above were sealed by layers of 19th and 20th century made ground containing fragmentary CBM, glass and ceramic, later topped by a landscaped surface of turf and topsoil. The landscaping had truncated the top of the brickearth during the construction of the current bank.
