Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned to undertake a desk-based assessment for the site of the former Thameside Health Centre, Barking and Dagenham, Greater London, ahead of any proposed redevelopment of the site. The former Thameside Health Centre was built in 1950-69 during a major period of post-war urban expansion; it was demolished in 2008-9 and the site is vacant. The site is located within an extensive area of reclaimed saltmarsh that formerly belonged to the Abbey at Barking (est. AD666) and which was embanked and drained during the medieval period. The historic maps suggest the site is located just to the west of a major watercourse within that drained landscape. The modern history of the site would strongly indicate the buried archaeological potential is low or negligible. However, at a depth of 1.5-2m belong current ground levels peat deposits of Neolithic and Bronze Age date are likely to survive; the proximity of the former watercourse could also indicate the presence of buried palaeochannels in this area. Therefore the palaeoenvironmental potential of the site is high.
