Abstract: |
Between the 29th of March-April 1st, and on the 6th of April 2016 Compass Archaeology conducted an archaeological evaluation within the premises of 230 St Mary's Lane, Upminster, London Borough of Havering. The works were undertaken as part of the planning process for the redevelopment of the site. The evaluation complements earlier fieldwork undertaken at the adjacent property 240-242 St Mary's Lane in 2009-10 by Compass and Essex County Council Field Archaeology Unit which uncovered the 16th-17th New Place property foundations, as well as part of the later 18th century footprint of the property. Three trenches were dug within and on the periphery of the footprint of the proposed new block and substantial post-medieval remains relating to multiple phases of the New Place building were uncovered. This included a 16th-18th century wall in Trench 1 and a 16th-18th century drain and drain inspection chamber in Trench 2. The features in Trench 1 are assumed to be part of the west wing of the late 16th-17th century New Place property, whilst those in Trench 2 could be part of the north frontage and courtyard. Two 16th-18th century walls were uncovered in Trench 3 which are likely to form part of the west and central wings of the 18th century property. The presence of medieval stone building pads in Trench 1 may represent evidence for an earlier phase at the site. |
