Abstract:
Archaeological watching brief conducted on the 14th October 2017 on a single trial trench located in Warwick Square, City of London EC4M 7BP. The work was commissioned by the City of London Department of the Built Environment ahead of the installation of rising bollards across the existing carriageway. The trench measured 1.6m in width (E-W) x 1.8m in length x 2.25m in depth (14.29mOD), with additional probing identifying an existing east-west sewer at a depth of 2.85m (13.69mOD). The stratigraphy comprised the present road surface overlying a homogenous deposit of post-medieval backfill, above the sewer. The upper part of this deposit was truncated by several east-west services. Much of the material is associated with the demolished buildings formerly lining Warwick Square from the 18th-19th centuries. A small amount of pottery, CBM, glass, metal and clay tobacco pipe was recovered. Natural deposits were not reached. Once recorded, the trench was reinstated on the same day.
