Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was conducted on the excavation of a pit for an access lift foundations by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd along the side of no. 4 Paper Buildings, City of London. The pit was not excavated deep enough to reach natural soils but an early post-medieval dump layer dating between 1480 and 1600, was found and was probably associated with land reclamation activity. Cutting the early post-mediaval dump was a foundation wall, dating between 1776 and 1830, possibly an addition to the pre 1830's building on this site. The layers above this wall consisted of construction concrete and dumped layers associated with the construction of the current 1830's building. |
