Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Valentines Mansion, Ilford, LB Redbridge at various points between 17/7/08-23/4/08. The watching brief consisted of monitoring underpinning operations in the library and servants hall, the coal yard, under the morning room, and in the basement, as well as pipe trenches in the portico and outside the morning room to the east of the building. Furthermore a tunnel that extended underneath the morning room was also investigated. The easrliest deposits found were natural sands, gravels, and clay sealed by subsoil in the western part of the building. Above these natural layers brick structures pre-dating the current western part of the building were encountered., comprising garden walls and possible floors. The watching brief revealed no features that dated from a period earlier than the post-medieval. |
