Abstract: |
An archaeological and environmental watching brief was carried out during a geotechnical survey. The site was located within an Archaeological Priority Zone, at short distance from the east of the medieval centre of Brentford, and between the High Street and the present Thames waterfront. A Roman Road from London to Silchester was located just to the north: there was also some form of settlement, possibly just to the west. The deeper boreholes produced evidence of substantial peat deposits and overlying alluvial deposits. These may have been of Roman or even prehistoric date and clearly had considerable archaeo-environmental potential. [Au(abr)] |
