Abstract:		 Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Joseph Greham to carry out an archaeological watching brief on land at no. 393 New Cross Road, London Borough of Lewisham, centred at OS NGR TQ 36664 77071. The Site is a rectangular plot of land located to the rear of no. 393 New Cross Road, a mid-19th century three storey terraced house (with later shop use at ground floor level). The Site occupied the former rear yard of the building that had been built on with a late 20th century single storey flat roof garage/storage unit. The watching brief was carried out on 31st May 2017 and monitored the excavation of the strip foundations for a new two-bedroomed house. Deep deposits (c.0.9m) of silty clay containing small fragments of 19th century pottery and ceramic building material were observed in the sides of the foundation trenches excavated by the building contractors. These deposits were interpreted as garden/market garden topsoil. Some of this topsoil may have come from the arisings during the construction of the cellar at no. 393 New Cross Road in the mid-19th century. Undisturbed natural geological deposits were not observed. The lowest deposits was a disturbed silty clay (Head Deposits) containing small fragments of 19th century pottery and ceramic building material. The red brick wall foundations of the former 19th century garden boundary wall and the rear extension to no. 393 new Cross Road were also observed during the watching brief. No archaeological features were observed during the works.
