Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A programme of geoarchaeological deposit modelling was carried out by Quaternary Scientific in connection with the proposed redevelopment of land at Wandle Trading Estate, Goat Road, Beddington Corner, London Borough of Sutton. The aims of the geoarchaeological investigations at the site were: (1) to clarify the nature of the sub-surface stratigraphy across the site, in particular to elucidate the size and orientation of a possible palaeochannel traversing the site; and (2) to clarify the nature, depth, extent and date of any alluvium and peat deposits. In order to achieve these aims, a programme of geoarchaeological monitoring and deposit modelling was carried out, incorporating the geotechnical borehole descriptions and records from those boreholes monitored in the field. The results of the investigations revealed that the sequence at the site consists of the Late Devensian Wandle Gravel, whose surface lies at between 20.6 and 21.8m OD, overlain in places by up to 1.5m of generally coarse-grained (sand-rich) Alluvium, and Made Ground. Made Ground directly overlies the Gravel in places, indicating that the Gravel surfaces here may be truncated. In the absence of any organic-rich horizons or Peat (such as that recorded elsewhere in the Wandle Valley), or evidence for former land surfaces/soil formation at the site, no further environmental archaeological investigations are recommended.
