Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief and evaluation was carried out on Areas D, E and A. The watching brief in Areas D and E to monitor the groundworks was intended to uncover the course of the historic River Fleet combined with results from geological bore holes and window samples. This was unsuccessful and the river course was not located. A steam pumping station was found in the same area, near Kentish Town locks, constructed in 1897 to reduce water-loss through the three Camden locks. The natural geology was not reached in this area; the lowest level recorded was 21.01mOD. The archaeological excavation in Area A uncovered the remains of a railway viaduct arch footing, constructed with the railway in 1846-60 and demolished when the viaduct was narrowed, 1945-50. The lock-keeper's cottage was also uncovered, comprising wall foundations, threshold, floors and fireplaces. The cottage consisted of two phases: the original cottage constructed in 1820 in the south-east corner of the footprint with two rooms and a separate outhouse to the north. It was characterised by very deep wall footings, cut into the natural geology at c.26.55mOD. The original cottage was extended and redeveloped in the late 1860s, becoming three buildings (two cottages and one of uncertain use). No evidence of activity or occupation before post-medieval were encountered. Finds of pot, CBM, CTP and metal were recovered from contexts, all dated to post-medieval/modern.
