Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology (PCA) was commissioned by FM Conway to undertake a watching brief during the excavation of three trial holes within the southern end of James Street, Covent Garden. They were excavated as an exercise to inform upon ground conditions and restraints in advance of the proposed Covent Garden HVM Scheme. No archaeological remains pre-dating the post-medieval period were identified. Masonry revealed in one trial hole is believed to relate to the early development of Covent Garden in the 17th and 18th centuries. |
