Abstract: |
A series of geotechnical test-pits in the basement of the present building at 25 & 26 Throgmorton Street and 123 Old Broad Street were archaeologically monitored with the aim of determining the location, extent, date, character and condition of any surviving archaeological remains within the area of proposed development. Of the nine pits excavated, only four produced archaeological deposits. The others contained no archaeological material, either because they were too close to standing building foundations or because they were terminated directly under the slab. Features recorded across the site included possible Roman quarries, a medieval chalk and ragstone foundation, two post-medieval brick walls, a post-medieval brick floor, a possible robber cut, a post-medieval well and two undated pits. The report recommended the development of an appropriate mitigation strategy, which would see the removal of archaeological deposits in a controlled archaeological watching brief. [Au(adp)] |
