Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to carry out an archaeological evaluation on land proposed for redevelopment at 804-834 Bath Road, Cranford, London Borough of Hounslow, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 510115 176857. Planning consent has been issued by the London Borough of Hounslow (P/2012/2307) for the demolition of existing buildings on the site, and the construction of a 425-room hotel with associated parking and landscaping, on condition that a programme of archaeological work is undertaken. A Written Scheme of Investigation detailing the methodology was approved by the local authority and proposed the machine excavation of six trial trenches and six geoarchaeological test pits, to assess the archaeological potential of the site. Two archaeological features were uncovered during the course of the evaluation, and comprised a single posthole and ditch. The posthole within Trench 2 contained a possible nail, and the ditch recorded within Trench 1 contained modern ceramics and glass. Several pieces of struck flint were also recovered from made ground deposits within the trenches, which is not unexpected given the known and extensive prehistoric activity within the area. |
