Abstract:
The archaeological investigations at 15 Dock Street have demonstrated the presence of a stratified archaeological sequence potentially dating to the Roman, medieval and post-medieval periods. Of particular note are the sizable quantities of Roman material, which even if residual, strongly hint at the presence of Roman activity in very close proximity, potentially remaining in situ below the pre-determined project level. In addition, whilst it is unclear whether the lower dumping sequence recorded on site is Roman or medieval in date, there is no doubt that the upper parts represent medieval ground reclamation and usage, particularly of the south of the site, potentially indicating a focus of medieval activity in the sites southern vicinity. The excavations recorded evidence for the sites development throughout the 17th century, where prior to the Great Fire of London a low-level site usage was apparent, whilst during the latter part of the century, into the 1700's, the sites concentrated development and usage as a glass factory adjacent to the western frontage of Dock Street is evident.
