Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief of three engineering trial pits was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd at the site of BSkyB Studios, Harlequin Avenue, Brentford, London Borough of Hounslow. The site consisted of three geotechnical trial pits, two of which were excavated in a car park at the northern end of Harlequin Avenue and one between buildings on the western side of Harlequin Avenue. The study area sloped gently downwards from the south to the north. The three engineering trial pits dug across the site failed to reveal any surviving archaeology. Modern concrete and tarmac was seen to overlie twentieth century made ground that in turn overlay a sequence of naturally deposited gravels and clays. |
