Abstract:
Between 2013 and 2018 Compass Archaeology undertook a programme of archaeological works during the City of London Corporation's redevelopment of the Aldgate, Houndsditch, and Dukes Street area. The archaeological programme included evaluation trenches dug over the footprint of the Roman and Medieval City Wall and Gate at Aldgate (LO26K); watching briefs undertaken during the excavation of dropshafts; tree planting pits; service re-routing trenches, and redevelopment of the churchyard of St Botolphs without Aldgate. These archaeological works recorded numerous archaeological features including the foundations of the Roman City Wall on Duke's Street; and extramural activity in the form of the infilled Roman and medieval versions of the City Ditch; backfilled Roman and medieval quarry pits; medieval street surfaces, post-medieval basements / coal cellars, former boundary walls of the churchyard to St Botolph's and disturbed graves. These features produced pottery, CBM, coins, animal bones, glass, clay tobacco pipe and some human remains.
