Abstract:		 In February 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted a programme of historic building recording at St. Anne's Convent, The Downs, West Wimbledon. The works were required as a condition of planning permission (Ref. 07/P3882) to demolish ancillary buildings and construct eight houses, an access road and amenity space. A programme of archaeological evaluation was also undertaken at the same time. The site lies within an area of late 19th century residential expansion, which saw the development of a number of formerly open fields, located between Lansdowne Road and Wimbledon School. In its original form Building 1 comprised a small carriage house and stable built to serve the main house and constructed in typical Arts and Crafts style. The asymmetrical yet carefully planned façade and decorative touches such as the red brick banding and tile-hanging reflect similar decorative elements visible on the main building, and are all features which point towards a date for construction in the late 1880s. Both Buildings 2 and 3 were constructed to provide additional accommodation and administrative areas for St Anne's Convent, and comprise typically 1960s or 1970s residential blocks. They both follow a layout comprising of a central corridor giving access to a series of rooms either side. Building 3 retains some gesture to the architecture of the main building such as the tile-hanging at the east end.
