Abstract: |
An archaeological and geoarchaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC in May 2012 at 24-28 Warner Street,Camden.The evaluation comprised of a single trench and a single borehole. The trench was located within the western extent of the site (No 24). The single borehole was excavated within the excavated trench. No significant archaeological remains were encountered on site. The archaeological evaluation revealed two layers of possible demolition deposits truncated by a modern concrete footing. The only remains relating to the Red Lion Public House, which had previously occupied the site, was a large limestone and brick work block which may have been part of the building. The geoarchaeological investigation revealed very thick made ground overlying a sequence of silty sandy clays and gravels. The results indicate that no fluvial sediments that might represent a significant period of Holocene deposition on the floodplain of the Fleet River were present on site. No further work is required on the samples obtained from the goearchaeological borehole. |
