Abstract:		 This desk-top assessment has been commissioned by Safe Securities Limited, in relation to the proposed redevelopment of the former EDF Energy Site, Stowage, Deptford, SE8. The site lies in an APZ as designated in the London Borough of Greenwich's UDP. A study of the known archaeological remains within 500m of the site has revealed a rich archaeological heritage. The area has been at the centre of Deptford's history for the past 500 years with the importance of the maritime and chemical industries and then more recently as a high- density residential area. Cartographic evidence shows that the site has been developed since 1623, prior to which it lay on the floodplain of the Ravensbourne and then when the river was drained and re-vetted, open or agricultural fields. Based on the archaeological and cartographic evidence there is thought to be a low probability of finding any prehistoric, Saxon or Roman remains; a low to medium probability of finding Medieval; and a high probability of finding post-Medieval remains on the site. The application is for the demolition of the existing electricity sub-station and the erection of a part 3/part 4 storey building comprising 26 flats along with ancillary parking and access. The construction of a substantial basement which forms part of the proposal is likely to truncate any remaining archaeological deposits. Due to truncation of the site from earlier and the current development, the site is thought not to contain any archaeological deposits of importance which should be preserved in situ.
