Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology undertook an archaeological evaluation at the Great Pagoda, Kew. This comprised a single evaluation trench located outside the structure on the north-western side opposite one of the blind recesses. The trench was excavated in an attempt to find steps present on an elevation dating to 1761. Unfortunately the steps were not revealed. The archaeological sequence comprised natural sands and gravels sealed by a deposit of 18th century garden soil. This was cut by a gaden feature and overlain by a stone block. A former topsoil surface sealed both the stone and garden feature and was in turn overlain by a gravel path. Modern make up, and tarmac sealed this path. Above the tarmac was the current gravel surface. |
