Abstract:		 Following the recommendations of GLAAS, eight evaluation trenches were excavated on the site and the results have helped to refine the initial assessment of its archaeological potential. Of the eight trenches excavated five reached the level of the natural gravels, with the remaining three excavated partly into the alluvial deposits. This overlying alluvial sequence where fully revealed had a thickness of between 1.36m to 2.03m. The dominance of alluvial and probably some fluvial sediments within all of the trenches indicates an environment that has been subjected to numerous episodes of both seasonal flooding and probably river or stream migration over a long period. Features of archaeological interest observed within or cutting into these deposits included possible land surfaces, natural channels, timber stakes plus a ditch of early date. The sequences of archaeological interest were then sealed by 19th-20th century made ground or landfill deposits. The varying presence and preservation of archaeological horizons, features, organic remains and palaeoenvironmental evidence suggests that the site has a low archaeological significance and a high geoarchaeological significance in understanding the natural and cultural formation and change of the lower Lea Valley.
