Abstract: |
An archaeological investigation was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited at 26 Sulivan Road, Fulham, London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, SW6 3DX. Prior to the archaeological evaluation a geotechnical survey was undertaken on site which revealed a substantial sequence of modern contaminated made ground, to a depth of c. 8.00m BGL, overlying natural clay deposits. One trench was excavated to the north of the site, encompassing Phase 1 of the proposed works. The trench was excavated to a depth of 2.40m BGL (1.81m OD), and comprised a sequence of five distinct dumps of contaminated deposits forming made ground. These deposits are believed to date to the demolition of the metal works which occupied the site from 1952 and was believed to have been demolished sometime after 1976. The results of the archaeological interventions mirrored the findings of the geotechnical investigation, revealing the site had been subject to severe horizontal truncation in the 20th century. It is therefore likely that any archaeological layers, deposits or structures preceding that period have been subsequently destroyed. |
