Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation, consisting of five c10m-long trenches, was undertaken on land at Highgate Junior School, Bishopswood Road, London Borough of Haringey, before the construction of a temporary Junior School on the site. However no finds or features of archaeological significance were uncovered. The general sequence of deposits consisted of an imported topsoil (a grey-brown sandy-silt deposit), believed to have been deposited when the site was laid out as school playing fields in the late 19th century. This overlay a pebbled surface - believed to be a 19th century work surface (predating the laying-out of the school playing fields). The only feature to be uncovered was the 19th century pond observed in trench 5. The outline of this was also visible in the grass, and is that depicted on 19th century maps. The brick-lining of this was uncovered, plus a series of pond-fills with 19th century finds. It was excavated to a depth of c2m beneath the modern ground-surface. No features of archaeological significance were uncovered during this evaluation, and no further archaeological mitigation is required in relation to the proposed development.
