Abstract:		 This archaeological desk-top has been prepared to support the planning application for the redevelopment of the site to increase its capacity; to create high-quality office facilities; and to address the problems with the design and layout of the current building. The application site lies in the London Suburbs APA and as such a desk-top is required to support any planning application. A review of the existing information has identified 58 designated and undesignated heritage assets within the study area: APA's; Grade II listed buildings; and archaeological monuments dating to the Roman, early medieval/Dark Age; medieval and post-medieval periods. The significance of these heritage assets ranges from medium for the APA's and Grade II listed buildings to low for the archaeological monuments and finds. The cartographic shows that development has occurred on the site since at least the mid-16th century. It is considered that the site has a high potential for finding buried heritage assets dating to all periods based on the GLHER; cartographic evidence; and the previous archaeological investigations. The construction of the current building in the mid-1970s required extensive areas to be excavated to a depth of 3.18m OD to create double-height basements which would have truncated any buried heritage assets. It is anticipated that there will be limited areas requiring excavation. However, due to the disturbance across the whole of the site from the construction of the current building it is thought that there will be low potential of finding any buried heritage assets resulting from the groundworks.
