Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Watching brief conducted in Gloucester Slips Car Park, NW1 4RY between the 21st and 28th February 2017 by Compass Archaeology. Commissioned by Thames Water, the programme of archaeological works entailed the monitoring of the completion of 2 trenches located at the east end of the car park, undertaken in order to establish the practicalities or re-routing the mains water supply ahead of the construction of the HS2 rail line. The first trial hole, TP30, recorded at least 1m of post-Second World War backfill below the modern car park surface. This was taken to be bomb debris used to backfill the Cumberland Arm of the Regent's Canal over which the site was situated. The second trial hole, TP29 recorded a shallower rubble deposit over natural London Clay. A very small quantity of post-medieval finds were recovered. Natural geology was encountered at 34.76-34.36mOD.
