Abstract: |
In 2008 Oxford Archaeology carried out an excavation and watching brief in the Privy Kitchen Courtyard at Hampton Court. The limited excavation revealed several features relating to the drainage and paving of the courtyard. No surfaces relating to the pre 19th century use were found. Amongst pre 19th century features uncovered there was a partial 18th century brick wall which was probably part of the walling dividing the area into storage space. A small section of partial brick walling in the north of the courtyard is thought to predate this. Several squared, hollow, features lined with slate are thought to relate to the areas use as a kitchen. The profiles of 30 removed paviours were recorded and the majority of the paviours appeared to be off-cuts, potentially from the extensive 19th century refenestration of the palace, however two paviours showed some evidence of reused stone. |
