Abstract:		 This report details the results and working methods of an archaeological watching brief of geotechnical trial pits carried out at New Cross Gate, London Borough of Lewisham. Natural sand was recorded across the site, overlain by intact brickearth deposits in the majority of trial pits. A relict horticultural horizon was recorded overlying the brickearth in a minority of cases. Truncations from 19th century housing and industry were shown to be fairly localised, and only two possible basement areas were discovered despite the positioning of several trial pits across former street frontages. Furthermore, wartime bombing, although immensely destructive above ground, appeared to have had very little effect on the deposits beneath. The site is currently occupied by three housing blocks dating to the second half of the 20th century, separated by open areas comprising lawns and flower beds.
