Abstract:		 The evaluation comprised four test pits positioned across the northern area of the proposed basement. Natural deposits were encountered in all four Test Pits. Test Pits 2, 3 and 4 demonstrated that the underlying geology comprised of chalk at a maximum height of 39.29m OD, whilst Test Pit 1 revealed a layer of Taplow Gravel at a height of 41.45m OD. Test Pit 1 contained layers of modern material and truncation, under which was the damaged remnants of an earlier cobbled surface, a drainage pipe, potential levelling deposits and a thick layer of material overlaying natural Taplow gravels. Within both Test Pit 2 and 3 the natural chalk was seen to a height of 38.43m and 39.29m respectively and was in both cases capped by modern levelling and floor surfaces. Test Pit 4 contained modern levelling and floor layers, below which were several layers of made ground under which the natural chalk remained to a height of 38.90m and was truncated to the northwest by a potential cut feature most likely relating to the post-medieval urban development of the site.
