Abstract: |
A watching brief monitored groundworks necessary for the scheme, comprising remediation works required to remove ground contaminants across an area measuring approximately 25m by 35m towards the centre of the northern half of the site to a depth of around 2.0m. Elsewhere ground reduction took place to a depth of around 1.0m to allow the construction of a piling mat. London Clay was uncovered across almost all of the northern area of the site at around 13.00m OD. Overlaying the London Clay were layers of Taplow Gravel as identified during previous ground investigation works. Subsoil deposits were found to have been heavily truncated in modern times, as a result of which no archaeological remains were discovered. |
