Abstract: |
A trial trench was opened. The slab was broken out and cleared by the contractors. The trench was excavated by machine by the contractor and modern made-up ground removed down to 1.00m below ground level (bgl), prior to the establishment of a piling mat, through which piles were driven. Inspection of the pile risings could only be made after cessation of activity. A trench measuring 8.25m long x 1.80m wide x 1.00 deep was excavated on the south side of the area in advance of a series of nine piles, two of which were monitored. Natural London Clay was located overlain by natural waterlogged silty gravel and up to 2m of soft thin banded fine sand and gleyed clay, indicative of stream silting, and evidence for the presence of a north-south palaeochannel projected through the area, recorded in 1965. |
