Abstract:
Following a Written Scheme of Investigation prepared by Pre-Construct Archaeology an archaeological watching brief was carried out between December 2017 and January 2018. The purpose of the watching brief was to monitor the restoration of a damaged scheduled monument and the removal of recently deposited materials. The monument surrounds in parts the perimeter of Pinner Deer Park, and over a number of years had been incorporated into the gardens of properties at Moss Close which face Deer Park. The archaeological watching brief revealed natural London Clay underlying the site, and noted that the natural topographic profile in the area slopes markedly from east down to the west. The archaeological evidence suggests that the earthen bank which bounds the scheduled monument is the product of excavation into the natural hillside rather than deliberate upstanding construction: a small ditch on the inner face of the bank created the profile which is currently visible, with the western boundary to the bank formed by the course of the River Pinn. The extent of modern impact to the buried remains of the bank has been recorded, as has the profile through the deposits overlying the monument. In the course of the watching brief all groundworks necessary to restore the were monitored in accordance with the Written Scheme of Investigation.
