Abstract:		 The potential for survival of ancient ground surfaces (horizontal archaeological stratification) on site was not present as natural showed evidence of been severely truncated. The surviving natural consisted of firm brownish orange clay with frequent small rounded and angular flints were encountered in the centre of the site and to the eastern side of the development site. The natural horizon within the western area of the development comprised of loose brownish orange sandy gravel. These natural clays and gravels were interpreted as the overlaying Quaternary sands and gravels of the Hackney Gravel Terrace as defined by Soil Survey of England and Wales (1983 and the British Geological Survey (1979). The evaluation also produced a partially exposed southwest corner of a 19th century cellar to former terraced houses that once fronted the north side of Lamb Lane. The height of these structural remains stands at a height of 16.45m OD. A thick layer of demolition rubble backfilled the cellar to a height of 16.66m OD, with mixed soil deposits directly overlaying the natural were recorded at a height of 17.19m OD and 16.81m OD. All three trenches clearly showed the underlying natural has been truncated down to between 15.25m OD (east of the site), 15.27m OD (west of the site) with the highest point at 15.49m OD in the centre of the site.
