Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site, where an earlier watching brief on boreholes had identified only natural deposits within the footprint of the current basements. Since the watching brief, the proposed scheme had been revised to include the extension of the new basement into an area which fell beyond the existing basement. The area thus affected lay along the frontage of Love Lane, which was located within the south-east corner of the Roman Cripplegate Fort. During the evaluation, undated pits which may have been of Roman or Saxon date, a medieval pit which may have been lined with wattle, a later medieval stone-lined pit and three undated quarry, rubbish or cess pits were revealed. The possible wattle-lined pit, the only one from which pottery was recovered, contained late 11th-12th century pottery, and a sherd dating from 1230 or later. Redposited Roman pottery was also found. Deposits had been truncated by post-medieval factory-made brick and concrete structures, including a deep, possibly vaulted cellar. It was concluded that stratified deposits relating to the Roman fort were unlikely to have survived at the site, and that preservation in situ would therefore not be appropriate. It was recommended that the remaining archaeological deposits beneath the Love Lane frontage should be excavated in advance of any ground reduction. [AIP]
