Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of proposed redelopment of 13-21 West Smithfield & 22-29 Hosier Lane. Two trenches were excavated in the basement of the standing building while 5 test pits were excavated in the northern extremity of the development area. Seventeen geo-technical test-pits in the basement were also observed. The complete absence of any archaeological deposits, both in test pits 1 and 2 and the geo-technical test-pits, from the basement of the standing building indicated that there was no potential for the survival of archaeological stratigraphy within the standing building. The remaining test pits revealed evidence of deposits from the Roman period through to the post medieval period. It was recommended that a limited watching brief would be adequate in the event of any disturbance below the basement area and that in the areas of the proposed new basement and strip foundations where there were no present basements, that excavation be undertaken.
