Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was conducted between October 2003 and January 2004 during refurbishment and redevelopment of the Royal Army Medical College, Millbank, City Westminster, London, on behalf of the Chelsea College of Art and Design. The existing college buildings are constructed over the remains of the 19th century Millbank Penitentiary. the objectives of the watching brief were to make a full record of any remains of the Penitentiary that were revealed and to investigate any underlying alluvial and peat deposits for in good evidence of prehistoric activity. During groundworks and piling, parts of the prsion moat and the concrete raft on which the prison was constructed were uncovered and recorded. No significant archaeological remains were found within the peat or alluvial deposits. |
