Abstract: |
In accordance with the Written Scheme of Investigation (MOLA 2014) two evaluation trenches were excavated on the site between 13.5.15 and 22.5.15. Only 1 of the planned 2 boreholes was carried out due to the level of modern intrusions. Trench 1 revealed only modern truncation's and services and heavily truncated natural brickearth was recorded in Trench 2. No archaeology or evidence for the River Tyburn (in the form of alluvial or gravel deposits) was uncovered in either of the trenches. The location of Trench 2 was shifted slightly due to modern column bases and other intrusions. This, and the evidence from Trench 1, suggests that the site has been heavily truncated by the current building. One borehole revealed natural brickearth at 14.24 mOD. |
