Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological watching brief and subsequent excavation was carried out at the former J.A. Symes Factory Site, Barking. The investigations revealed a wattle fence and a number of post-medieval moorings. These features were sealed by a layer of mid to late post-medieval made ground, deposited in order to reclaim land from the River Roding. A water-powered flour mill was then constructed in the early 18th century. The building was modified throughout the 19th century, when a steam powered extension was constructed and subsequently enlarged. A small, seperate workshop was also constructed in the mid 19th century, which was situated to the northeast of the mill. A number of 19th to early 20th century mooring posts and a boat or barge were discoverd to the immediate west of the steam powered extension. They were sealed by a deposit of mid 20th century made ground, deposited in order to reclaim the remaining portion of the site from the river.
