Abstract: |
The Museum of London Archaeology Service and Pre-Construct Archaeology (MoLAS-PCA) recorded a cottage on the east bank of the River Lea, Stratford (OL-02107), and a towpath wall running along the east bank (OL-06207). The cottage and wall were to be demolished or altered in order to redevelop the site, and the archaeological investigation and a subsequent report were required as a condition of planning consent for the redevelopment. The investigation took place in August 2007. The cottage comprised a two-storey, brick-built house in the Mock-Elizabethan, or Tudorbethan, style. Archival research revealed that the house was built in 1902-3, by the East London Waterworks Company, as a foreman's house for the nearby pumping station. The wall was classically-styled, and built in yellow and blue brick. It was constructed around 1907, by the Metropolitan Water Board, and extended to the north some time between 1916 and 1951. |
