Abstract: |
Watching brief was undertaken during construction groundworks for an education and visitor centre. The watching brief demonstrated an absence of archaeological remains predating the 20th century. Structural archaeological remains associated with early 20th century military buildings known to have formerly occupied the area of site currently under development were exposed. These remains are almost certainly part of the foundations and underground services of the Royal Flying Corps School of Aerial Gunnery Building 76, constructed in 1917/18. All recorded deposit sequences related to the 20th century development of the site as the School of Aerial Gunnery or else its subsequent operation as RAF Uxbridge. |
