Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken between 7th September and 5th October 2015 on foundation excavation works at Maya House, 134-138 Borough High Street, London Borough of Southwark, by Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited. Maya House is situated to the east of Borough High Street, and is bounded by other properties to the north, south and west. The building itself has a rear courtyard to the north-west. The watching brief was commissioned by C.g.M.s. Consulting Limited. The work involved the excavation of three areas for the installation of piles, pile caps and ground beams for future building extensions. The three areas excavated comprised a 'rear area' within the current footprint of Maya House, and two 'northern areas' in the external rear courtyard. During the excavations, a probable cess pit, foundation wall, possible manhole wall, and large construction cut for services, all of post-medieval date, were observed. Horizontal dumping layers of both Roman and later dates were also revealed during the excavation. No natural deposits were encountered. The only other features and deposits encountered on site were modern layers of made ground and concrete, and construction cuts and fills for modern building and basement walls.
