Abstract: |
This report details the results and working methods of an archaeological evaluation that was undertaken on land at Heliport House, 38 Lombard Road, Wandsworth, SW11 3RP. The evaluation demonstrated that the underlying geology was Kempton Park gravels, overlain by thick deposits of sterile silty clay, which can be identified as a type of Langley Silt Member. Overlying and possibly truncating natural deposits were thick layers of demolition and industrial waste deposited during the by late post-medieval period, as well as a succession of late post-medieval industrial surfaces relating to the site's function as part of a larger industrial complex. The heavy late post-medieval material evidenced across the site is likely to have removed all earlier cultural remains that may once have existed on the site, and has possibly had a significant impact on natural deposits also. |
