Abstract:		 In the 1976 excavations of Legge's Mount (Tower of London), wood charcoal remains were recovered from deposits associated with the Tudor Royal Mint. Results of detailed analysis of the charcoal remains are presented here; the dominance of Quercus sp (oak) and Fraxinus sp (ash) indicates that these were the preferred wood types for fuelling the mint's furnace. Betula sp (birch) and Corylus sp (hazel) remains were also identified. As well as providing information on the selection for fuels, the presence of these taxa suggests their availability in the locality.
