Abstract:		 Compass Archaeology were commissioned to undertake an evaluation from 17th-19th December 2018 at 124 King Street, Hammersmith, W6 0QU. The evaluation was commissioned to discharge a planning condition, introduced based on the sites location within the King Street Archaeological Priority Area. The archaeological evaluation comprised the excavation of two trenches, placed to intersect the Iron Age remains revealed at 120-124 King Street (KSH 00), and 5-15 Galena Road (GAN 96). Trench 1, in the eastern side of the site, was aligned N-S, measuring 9.13m by 1.89m. It was excavated to 1.26m deep, with a sondage at the southern end 2.08m deep (3.09mOD). Trench 2 was located on the eastern side of the site, aligned NE-SW, measuring c.15m by 1.8m and 1.15m deep (4.13mOD). The stratigraphy in both trenches was similar, comprising modern concrete slab (floor of the carpark) overlying varying deposits of modern made ground. The natural geology was not encountered in trench 1, and only potentially visible in trench 2, comprising orange brown clayey silt. Several fragments of modern and post-medieval pottery were recovered from both trenches. One fragment of prehistoric pottery was recovered from (206), the deposit of potentially redeposited natural visible at the base of trench 2, dated to the late Bronze Age/early Iron Age. No other evidence of the nearby prehistoric features encountered during other excavations were recorded during the evaluation. It appeared that the construction of the hotel car park had massively truncated the area, reducing potential for encountering significant archaeological remains.
