An Archaeological evaluation followed by Strip, Map and Sample exercise was conducted on land at Broadway Chambers, Stratford, London Borough of Newham, E15 4QS. The natural drift geology was seen throughout the sudy area to be deposits of sandy gravels capped with brickearth type materials covered by compacted sands and gravels. The earliest recorded archaeology on site were three groups of posthole dating to the Mesolithic/Neolithic. Two of the groups formed hut like patterns the formed a rectangular enclosure. Features dating from the late Bronze Age to Middle Iron Age include a boundary ditch, an alignment of postholes and various pits. One Roman pit was ecountered during the investigations. Medieval activities included at least on posthole and beamslot structure, a clay and timber structure, two posthole structures, a property boundary ditch and road/path and various ditches, pits and postholes. The post-medieval was represented by a recuts of the property boundary ditch, a group of horticulturally related features and various small pits and postholes. Walls respecting the line of the earlier property boundary, a brick lined sewer and joined segments of bored timber water pipe dating from the 19th century were noted. 20th century deposits covered the site. |
