Abstract:
In May and June 2012 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) conducted an archaeological `strip, map and sample'' investigation at Staines Preparatory School, 3-5 Gresham Road, Staines, Surrey, TW18 2BT. The investigation was commissioned to comply with a planning condition attached to approval for the redevelopment of the site comprising the erection of a two-storey extension to the Gresham Road frontage combined with the construction of a new sports hall, changing facilities and an attached specialist teaching block. The majority of the archaeological remains discovered within the vicinity of the site are located c.1km to the north-west in the modern town of Staines where numerous archaeological investigations have revealed substantial evidence for prehistoric settlement. Roman Staines (Pontes) and the medieval settlement were both established in the area of the modern town and the site lies outside of these historic urban cores. Substantial urban development occurred in Staines throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. The site of Staines Preparatory School remained agricultural until the late 19th century. The school was founded in 1935 and the buildings depicted on the 1895 map eventually became part of the school. The plan of the site, comprising five school buildings with associated sports grounds, has changed significantly since 1895, with several modern additions and extensions. The construction of the existing school buildings, play grounds and sports courts will likely have significantly truncated archaeological remains, if present. In the event no archaeological features or finds were present.
