Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), the contracting division of University College London Centre for Applied Archaeology were commissioned by Rydon Construction, to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the demolition of nos. 1 and 2 Gas Cottages and the gas works buildings, and the subsequent groundworks associated with the development of 14 dwellings in five blocks. The site centre is at NGR TQ 78111 43790. It was found during the project that the site had received some degree of disturbance of fairly modern origin. This included services and foundations relating to Gas Cottages and the gasworks. Further archaeological remains related to the air raid shelter, the gasworks and the cottages were not observed, save for the deposit of burnt clay exposed during the excavation of the access way. |
