Abstract:		 On the 9th and 11th July 2019 Compass Archaeology undertook an archaeological watching brief at the north-eastern side of Clapton Common, London Borough of Hackney E5 9AL. The work was commissioned by London Borough of Hackney due to the site's location within an Archaeological Priority Area and relative proximity to the Roman Road. The watching brief monitored the completion of a single T-shaped trench, excavated to accommodate the installation of two new tree beds and footpath. The works exposed several layers of made ground, possibly dating to the late post-medieval or modern period. Within these layers were residual finds of ceramic building material, pottery, shell, animal bone, clay tobacco pipes and glass. The finds mostly dated to the late post-medieval period and modern, with some Roman and medieval pottery fragments also recorded. No significant archaeological features were encountered, with the stratigraphy comprising the upper tarmac/grass layer over made ground layers between depths of 0.02m and 0.5m (c. +29.82 to +28.97m OD). Natural geology was not reached.
