Abstract: |
Between June and August 2014 Compass Archaeology conducted an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with flood alleviation works around Abbots Park and Fletcher Lane in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The watching brief was prompted due to the works programme taking place on the edge of the archaeological priority zone of Low Leyton; a 12th century medieval settlement, with some evidence of prehistoric activity as well. In the event no archaeological features or deposits were observed during the watching brief. Natural geology was encountered from with 0.40m below the modern ground surface, consisting of layered brickearth, gravels and sand. |
