Abstract:		 Compass Archaeology undertook a watching brief in October 2011 to monitor the installation of three new Voltage Optimisation Units , each of which will be contained within a shed-type cabinet adjacent to existing electrical buildings at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew. The units were located just to the south of the Hebarium (approx. TQ 1873 7756), on the Kew Road boundary immediately east of the Jodrell Lab (TQ 1900 7729) and to the south of the Marianne North and Shirley Sherwood Galleries MNG (TQ 1866 7636). The watching brief took place at the Marianne North Gallery area on 3rd October 2011, at the Jodrell Gate on 6th October 2011 and at the Herbarium on the 10th October 2011. At the Herbarium the groundworks measured 3.06m x 1.01m in plan and only penetrated 25mm into the existing top soil layer. At the Jodrell Laboratory the groundworks measured 3.10m x 1.10m in plan and penetrated to a depth of 250mm, overlying an earlier surface of a reinforced grill for the overlying concrete and above a layer of tarmac and Type 2 infill. At the MNG unit the ground works involved an area 1m x 2m in plan excavated to a depth of approximately 350mm below the current ground surface and this did not penetrate beneath the existing modern top soil layer. At the all locations the groundworks did not penetrate beyond modern deposits and no archaeological finds or features were noted or affected by the construction of these three new units.
