Abstract: |
The area covered by the evaluation lay within the Scheduled Ancient Monument GL 165 which consisted of the Medieval Cluniac Priory (later the Benedictine Abbey) of St Saviour, Bermondsey and the post-medieval mansion house of Sir Thomas Pope. The evaluation revealed surviving Monastic deposits and structures in the form of walls and floors while identifying areas of truncation where all archaeological deposits had been destroyed. Medieval and Roman agricultural/horticultural deposits were also recorded overlying archaeological features cut into the natural gravels and an apparently isolated burial. In addition, post-medieval remains included buildings incorporating reused stone from the Abbey, a cemetery, external surfaces and internal floors, deposits associated with demolition and construction and several large pits.
