Abstract: |
The Museum of London Archaeology Service and Pre-Construct Archaeology (MoLAS-PCA) were commissioned by the Olympic Delivery Agency to analyse and record a standing building. The structure was due to be demolished or altered in order to redevelop the site, and the archaeological investigation and subsequent report were required as a condition of planning consent for the redevelopment. The investigation of the wall took place in October 2007 The wall opposite 116 - 130 Abbey Lane is classically styled, constructed from yellow stock bricks and blue engineering bricks, and relates to the former West Ham gasworks site. The wall was constructed during the 1890's, and formed part of the boundary wall which originally surrounded the entire gas works site. By the late 1990's most of the boundary walls eastern extent had been demolished by the construction of Rick Roberts Way, creating its current length |
