Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief conducted by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd during formation works associated with the redevelopment of One Lothbury in the City of London. The proposed development involves the demolition of the existing buildings interior, and then its reconstruction within the retained façade. The installation of temporary support works for the façade retention formed the basis for the watching brief reported upon here. Previous archaeological work at One Lothbury has suggested that no archaeological features or deposits survive at the site of One Lothbury, owing to the methodology by which the existing building was constructed in the 1940s. The latest watching brief, which monitored works at basement level, concurs with those previous suggestions. In light of the work that has now been undertaken at One Lothbury, and owing to not only the lack of archaeological survival but indeed the documentary evidence for its full-scale removal in the 1950s, it is recommended that no further mitigation is necessary. |
