Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group between the 22nd and 31st August 2006 in the western area of the Brunel University campus, Uxbridge, on behalf of Brunel University and commissioned by Gifford. The aim of the evaluation was to assess the impact of the proposed redevelopment of this part of the campus on any surviving archaeological remains. The evaluation comprised eight machine excavated trenches, five of which measured 20m by 2m, with the remaining three trenches measuring 10m by 4m. One trench was recognised as containing archaeological features. These features comprised an east-west aligned early post-medieval shallow boundary ditch, and an earlier undated pit truncated by it. The evaluation trenches also revealed a phase of 19th century re-landscaping involving the horizontal truncation of the previously existing soil sequence in the northwest area of site, associated with the re-deposition of substantial quantities of brickearth. A later phase of early to mid 20th century landscaping and construction, introduced a further phase of horizontal truncation across the whole of the site. Overall, the potential for archaeological deposits to be present on site is limited. This is due to the multiple phases of horizontal truncation that have occurred, removing most of the potential for archaeological features. This is in addition to the low intensity nature of the archaeological features identified.
