Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out at Ferry Lane Walthamstow. Three trenches were excavated across the site to the top of the natural gravel. A total of four wooden timbers were found driven into the underlying gravel terrace, three of which had been sharpened to a point and the carpentry facets were clearly visible. The timbers have been provisionally dated to the Bronze Age. This timber structure, possibly a fish trap, was supplemented by finds from the sandbank itself consisting of burnt flint, fragmentary daub and a partial clay weight with a suspension hole - this was interpreted as a fishnet weight. Animal bone recovered from the same context turned out to be a donkey or small pack animal, an unusual find from the prehistoric period and usually associated with Roman contexts.
