Abstract: |
In April 2009 an evaluation was carried out at the 46-51 Gillender Street in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, prior to the construction of a block of flats. The site is located in an area of considerable archaeological and historical importance and this has been recognised by the designation of much of the area as an Archaeological Priority Area. Alluvium deposits most likely laid down by the River Lea that runs directly east of the site were observed within the trench. A 1st Century Roman ditch was discovered cutting and also being covered by the alluvium deposits. |
