Abstract:		 Four test pits and seven boreholes were excavated across three areas at the Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd site at Sidcup in advance of re-development. The test pit evidence was restricted to exposing the concrete footings of the present buildings and no archaeological layers were exposed. The borehole evidence was more positive, allowing a consistent tripartite 'site processes' model to be constructed. It was found that the chalk bedrock was overlain first by Pleistocene gravels; probably derived from flooding events of the nearby River Cray immediately to the east of the site. This in turn was overlain by Holocene alluviums in the form of a brick-earth, an old ground surface which was found to have been occupied in the Mesolithic period during an evaluation by PCA in 2015. A large quantity of struck flint-work was recovered from this surface. This current phase of the operation did not permit any open areas of excavation. Residual finds in the form of fragmentary tobacco pipe and CBM seemed to confirm the Post-medieval date for a trapped plough soil found in some areas of the site under the modern concrete surface. A single, broken Mesolithic flint blade was retrieved from a 'made ground' layer which had worked its way into the later layers through re-working and soil movement.
