Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief took place in the area of Hale Lane and Farm Road, Edgware, between September and December 2006. This was carried out during groundworks for a Thames Water engineering scheme. Initial works involved stripping of turf, topsoil and made ground within the site, followed by substantial excavation for a water storage chamber. The site was considered to have potential for a range of archaeological remains based on its proximity to Watling Street and associated finds spanning the Prehistoric, Roman and Saxon periods. Archaeological observation of topsoil stripping across the site did not reveal any significant remains. In addition, observance of subsequent excavation for the installation of the water storage chamber did not reveal any further archaeological features or deposits. The watching brief appeared to confirm the geological record, in terms of sterile alluvial deposits on the south-east side of the site in the area excavated for the storage chamber. The deposit overlay the natural London Clay, and reflected the proximity of Dean''s Brook just to the west, although no paleao-environmental remains were found.
