Abstract:
AOC Archaeology Group undertook an archaeological evaluation at the site of Crayford Town Hall. The evaluation comprised the machine excavation of five trenches. The evaluation identified three principal phases of deposition in four of the five evaluation trenches. The earliest phase comprised alluvial deposition and a series of palaeochannels across the site which started to form during the Early Mesolithic period. From the base of one of the palaeochannels a large timber fragment of yew was recovered, which may be the earliest example yet found in this country. This was followed by a second phase represented by the accumulation of peat, overlain by a sequence of medieval and post-medieval dumps. The final phase of activity was associated with large scale deposition of made ground deposits during the 19th and 20th centuries in order to facilitate extensive use of the site. No archaeological features were identified during the course of the fieldwork although evidence of the medieval/post-medieval environment was identified.
