Abstract:
This report details the results of an archaeological watching brief on geotechnical investigations for land at Fair Field, College Road, Croydon. The work was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited, and was commissioned by Mott MacDonald. The watching brief monitored the excavation of eleven Observation Pits and two Dynamic Cone Penetrometers within the southern strip of the Fair Field development area between 30th November and 15th December 2016. Natural gravel was seen at the base of some of the test pits, which was overlain by a soil dating to before the post-medieval period. Sequences of late post-medieval and modern made ground were witnessed across the site. Extensive truncation was noted, as expected, in the investigations located closest to the current buildings. No archaeological structures or features other than possible medieval and post-medieval made ground were identified.
