Abstract:
Six evaluation trenches were excavated at a site bounded by Church Street and Church Lane, Dagenham, near the parish church of St Peter and St Paul. Natural sand and gravel was cut by a number of undated features and a prehistoric ditch that contained a single sherd of Bronze Age pottery. Medieval quarry pits dating from the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries were recorded north of a contemporary boundary ditch. A number of gravel yard surfaces and postholes were the rear yards for medieval buildings to the north of the site on the Church Street frontage under the present road. A contemporary assemblage of domestic pottery, finds and animal bones were found. The remains of a seventeenth-century brick building represented the post-medieval development along Church Street, with a brick cellar to the rear. Many alterations and repairs were made to this building into the nineteenth century, including the addition of a timber, and later a brick, extension to the rear of the building. Two post-medieval wells were recorded to the rear of these buildings along with an eighteenth-century boundary ditch indicating the limits of this property.
