Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The site (TQ 2852 6501) lies on the south-eastern crest of a small outcrop of Thanet Sand overlooking a valley in which a branch of the River Wandle may have run before it was diverted c1700. In 1921 the remains of Wallington Chapel, demolished in 1797, were excavated on land that now mainly forms the back garden of 32 Burleigh Avenue. This enigmatic building has been much discussed, but its origin and purpose remain obscure. The discovery in 1976 of part of a human skull in the front garden led to a further excavation, directed by the author on behalf of the Beddington, Carshalton and Wallington Archaeological Society. | ||
