Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation consisting of 4 trenches in the Phase 3 area of the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station and it's surroundings. Deposits and features revealed in the trenches indicated that the establishment of the Battersea Waterworks in the middle of the 19th century and the site's further development into the railway goods yard during the 20th century led to substantial horizontal truncation of almost any potential archaeological horizon. Natural river terrace deposits, consistent with the geology of the area, were encountered in all of the trenches at heights varying between -0.60m OD and 3.08m OD. |
