Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment was undertaken prior to the determination of planning permission for the re-development of the site. Alluvial deposits and features of prehistoric date were tentatively suggested by a previous watching brief which revealed distinct parallels between deposits across the site and from previous sites in the Wandle Valley. The alignment of Roman Stane Street was identified as being very close to, if not through, the site. Residual finds suggested occupation in the vicinity of the site. It was likely that deposits from the saxon to the post-medieval might be present Cut features associated with the 18th and early 19th century calico industry were known to cross the site, as did a number of subsequent water cress beds. The report advised that further evaluation would be required across the site. [Au(adp)] |
