Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at 'The Great Lawn', Kew Palace, on work on the porch of the palace and in advance of the realignment of pathways serving Kew Palace to a 19th century alignment. Early post-medieval features were encountered on site, particularly a potential Tudor ?hearth and 16th-17th century wall foundations. 18th century wall foundations and a cobbled path discovered in Trench 8 are likely to represent the remains of the stable yard associated with the White House, constructed in 1732. The majority of the features encountered were from the post-medieval period, mostly relating to the development of the area from the 18th century and subsequent demolition of the royal complex in the 19th and 20th centuries. |
