Abstract:
Eight evaluation trenches and three trial pits were investigated prior to the redevelopment of the Centre Buildings, London School of Economics and Political Science, City of Westminster. The evaluation trenches were archaeologically investigated whereas the trial pits were monitored under watching brief conditions. The evaluation identified natural horizons of brickearth and gravel across the majority of the study site, variably impacted by the extant development. This was overlain or truncated by Saxon features associated with occupation, including structural remains in the form of postholes, property boundaries, refuse pits and dumped debris. These features were post dated by further development from the early post-medieval and post-medieval periods dating between the 16th and 19th centuries. The latter comprised further construction in the form of basement/boundary walls, pitting, dumping and linear property boundaries.
