Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation that was undertaken at The Queen's Head, Cricket Green, Mitcham, CR4 4LA. The aims of the project were to determine the natural topography, the nature, date and survival of any archaeological periods within the confines of the site, particularly those of Saxon or medieval date, and to establish the extent of all past post-depositional impacts on the archaeological resource. The evaluation demonstrated that the underlying geology consisted of mid yellowish-brown sands and gravels of the Taplow type, seen at a height of 20.64m OD in Trench 1 and 19.43m OD in Trench 2. The gravel was overlain by a natural mid yellowish-brown clay in Trench 2, located between 20.64m and 20.13m OD. In Trench 2 significant post-medieval ground disturbance was noted. A large pit of 18th-19th century date had truncated the gravel and clay. A chalk foundation was also identified, cutting the pit. In Trench 1, 19th and 20th century layers and features were noted.
