Abstract:
An archaeological disinterment undertaken by PCA within the playground of St Josephs RC Primary School, Cadogan Street, LB Kensington and Chelsea between 25/2/2008-21/3/2008. The archaeological programme consisted of stripping off the modern overburden across an area that would form the footprint of a new building, after the position of all the graves in this area had been established the burials threatened by below ground operations were excavated and the skeletons removed for assessment. The earliest deposit encountered during the excavation was natural brick earth consistent with the underlying geology of the area. 12 graves dating to the 1850s were excavated containing 22 bodies. None of the graves encountered were intercutting but many contained double or triple burials showing reuse of plots. The only other archaeologically important feature on site was the south wall foundation of an early 19th century chapel outbuilding which forms part of the northern boundary of the cemetery. Assessment of the skeletons found the assemblage consisted of 21 adults and an infant, of these 10 were male, 5 female and 6 of indeterminate sex. Pathological traits were exhibited by several individuals and there were also several interesting non-metric traits and morphological variations.
