Abstract:		 An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken in relation to proposed developments. The report concluded that the site had a low archaeological potential for in-situ Palaeolithic faunal remains, human activity of the prehistoric periods, or indeed the Roman, Saxon, medieval and early post-medieval periods. The site's archaeological potential for the post-medieval periods (from c.1660) was good in the non-basemented parts of the site, and non-existent in the basemented areas. The site had been subject to a number of post-depositional impacts, namely the foundations of 74 St James' Street and 14 Little St James' Street and their associated basements. The construction of the piles and pile caps for the 1960's construction in the central part of the site would also have severely impacted any underlying archaeological deposits. At this stage, however, the potential for archaeological deposits to survive between the pile caps could not be ruled out. [Au(adp)]
