Abstract: |
A two trench Archaeological evaluation of land at Albany house, 41 Brentford high Street took place between the 19-11-2012 and 28-11-2012. The site lies within an Archaeological priorty zone, on a terraced slope between Brentford High Street and the River Thames, descending to towards the river.Natural river terrace gravels were seen in both trenches sloping down towards the River Thames. In the most northerly trench a heavily truncated band of Brickearth was seen capping the natural gravels. A large pit dated from the late medieval/early post-medieval was recorded in the southern trench. Although the site had suffered major truncation, especially towards the high street, a number of cut features, notably a series of pits, a posthole, two cess-pits and two fragments of truncated wall were recorded dating from the post medieval period. Masony, including walls and three arched drains, Two yard surfaces and rubbish pits represented activity dating from the 19th Century. |
