Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during drainage works and refurbishment at St Anne's Parish Church, Kew Green. The work was monitoried in three phases: levelling and drainage works in the western forecourt, levelling and refurbishment of the paved area beneath the portico, and leveling and restoration of the south porch. Two earlier phases of boundary wall were exposed beneath the paving under the portico, reflecting alterations to the church building in 1805 and 1837 respectively. A brick-built burial vault was sealed beneath a grave slab adjacent to the south door of the in the west porch, and modern and contemporary records were used to identify the owners as the Hobbs family of Kew - the earliest definite burial dating to 1813. Disarticulated and in-situ human remains were observed in trenching in the south porch area. Shallow made ground layers were observed in the west forecourt, overlying clay natural. |
