Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological evaluation was carried out at 198 York Road and York Place, Battersea, London Borough of Wandsworth. The evaluation took place from 18th-25th September 2017, and consisted of ten trenches. The site had previously been used as a saccharum works and a garden centre. The site was located adjacent to a medieval Bishop's Palace, which was located directly to the north of the site. Brickearth was found in five of the trenches, located at c. 2.5m OD in the north of the site and c. 3.5m OD in the south of the site. In Trench 9 natural gravel was encountered at 2.51m OD, but no brickearth was present. In Trenches 1, 2 and 6, no natural deposits were encountered, and extensive modern truncation was present to a depth of at least 2.4m below ground level. In Trench 3, a layer of possibly medieval material was found. It could only be excavated in a small sondage due to safety constraints. The layer contained pottery and CBM of 12th-15th century date. Above the natural in Trenches 4 and 10, an undated ploughsoil was encountered. This was tentatively assigned to the later post-medieval period. Trenches 7, 8 and 9 found a 19th century garden soil survived, and 19th century garden features such as possible flowerbeds and wells were seen in Trenches 7 and 9. Thick layers of modern demolition material were seen the majority of the trenches, probably relating to the demolition of the terraced houses and the saccharum works.
