Abstract:		 Between the 8th and 11th November 2016 Compass Archaeology conducted an Archaeological Watching Brief on the site of Tower Hill Gardens, City of London, EC3N during groundworks associated with the installation of new railings around the southern and southeastern boundary of the Garden. The programme of archaeological works entailed the monitoring and recording of 28 trial pits.The pits were consistent in size and shape, measuring on average, 400mm in length x 300mm x 600mm in depth, dug at intervals of 2.5m. The stratigraphy comprised 100-200mm of topsoil above 400mm of fairly loose soil containing frequent fragments of post-medieval/modern ceramic building material and occasional fragments of chalk. No features of archaeological interest, such as evidence of the adjacent Roman wall and ditch to the west, or Post-medieval Circus to the east were recorded. The lowest level recorded was 9.39mOD at the western end of the fence line.
