Abstract:
A watching brief was carried out during the excavation of foundation and pipe trenches and an area for a lift shaft, within the basement of a Grade II Listed Building. The site lay within the walled area of Roman Londinium, and within the precinct area of Holy Trinity Priory, which was established in 1108. An earlier watching brief at the site had recorded Roman dumps, make-ups and brickearth surfaces, which had been cut into by three groups of medieval pits and an undated burial. During the 1996 watching brief, thirteen medieval graves were excavated, confirming that the site had lain within a cemetery area. In the lift shaft area the cemetery sequence overlay a number of pits dating to the late 11th or early 12th century. Beneath this sequence, two Roman pits were recorded, one of which dated to the 2nd century AD. The second was smaller and contained a whole 2nd-3rd century burnished pot. Monitoring of other service excavations resulted in the recording of medieval burials, pits and dumps and further Roman deposits, including demolition dumps and redeposited brickearth. [Au(abr)]
