Abstract:		 Between the 7th and 11th March 2019 Compass Archaeology conducted an Archaeological Watching Brief at Fortune Green Road, London Borough of Camden NW6 1AA during groundworks associated with the installation of a new water main. The work was commissioned by Lyndsey Curtis (SMBJV) due to the scheme being located within the West End Archaeological Priority Area. The programme of archaeological works entailed the monitoring of eleven trenches excavated along the southern part of Lyncroft Gardens, adjacent to Lyncroft Mansions and Emmanuel Church. The stratigraphy recorded was uniform throughout, comprising the existing tarmac road surface (1) overlying a layer of reinforced concrete (2) and a thin lens of loose brick rubble (3). Context (3) overlay a homogenous deposit of compact orange-brown clay (4), taken to be the natural London Clay, continuing below the extent of excavation. No features associated with the land use prior to the creation of the present estate were observed and no finds were recovered. The high level at which natural geology was encountered, c0.5m below ground level (68.3-63.3mOD) would suggest the area was heavily truncated in advance of construction of the present street, wholly removing any evidence of previous activity or occupation.
