Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation comprising three trenches and a short watching brief. The results of the archaeological evaluation indicated that the Cowley Brick Works and Exhibition Grounds of the late 19th-early 20th century as well as the development of BBC Television Centre had entirely truncated any potential earlier archaeological deposits and had an impact on the natural clay and brickearth.The only discrete features encountered during the investigation were several cuts for services, and a modern construction cut containing a concrete base. Additionally during the watching brief a concrete manhole was encountered in the eastern part of the site during ground reduction works in the Pavilion area of Television Centre. No other archaeological activity or deposits that pre-dated the late 19th-early 20th century were recorded during the archaeological evaluation. |
