Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd on land at Cockpen House, 20-30 Buckhold Road, Wandsworth, SW18, London Borough of Wandsworth, in advance of redevelopment, between the 2nd - 13th February 2012. The work was commissioned by Mount Anvil in advance of a planning application for the redevelopment of the site. A layer of alluvium was observed to the north of the site which contained 11th -12th century pottery sherds. Cut into this layer was a substantial boundary/drainage ditch, the fill of which contained pottery datable to the 13th century; well within the medieval period. At least two early post medieval ditches were observed across the site; the ditch to the north of the site appears to be 15th-16th century in origin with the heavily truncated ditch to the south 17th-18th century. Evidence for bleaching processes related to Henry Gardiner's calico-printing works in the late 18th - early 19th centuries was observed so the south of the site in the form of a cut channel containing a timber bleaching tank. This feature was heavily truncated by a number of cut features likely related to the construction of the Cavendish Engineering Works in the early to mid 20th century. |
