Abstract:
Between May 2003 and September 2007 Archaeological Solutions Ltd have carried out a periodic programme of archaeological monitoring and recording (Area C) at Fairlop Quarry. To date, in advance of gravel extraction, there have been six phases of archaeological monitoring and recording, divided in Areas 1, 2A, 3A, 3B, 3C and 3D. The archaeological monitoring and recording has revealed a Late Bronze Age Barrow comprising a ring ditch and its central pit in Area 2. A single prehistoric ditch was recorded in Area 1, and it produced a worked flint blade of uncertain date. Iron Age settlement activity consisted of two roundhouses with adjoining droveway and fire pits in Area 3D, and a gully and possible cremation situated on the slightly higher ground of Area 3C. Romano-British activity was recorded in Area 2A in the form of two parallel curvilinear ditches that truncated the remains of the earlier Bronze Age Barrow. Post-medieval boundary ditches were located in Areas 1, 3B and 3D, and in the haul road section of Areas 1 and 3A. Modern quarry pits were present in Areas 3C and 3D. Modern ditches were recorded in Areas 2A, 3B, 3C and 3D, and some of these contained field drains. In addition, numerous 19th - 20th century field drains were located across the site. Undated features have been recorded across the areas of monitoring and these include a gully in area 2A, pits in Areas 1 and 3C, and two layers in area 3D.
