Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of their client to undertake an archaeological watching brief and evaluation at (centred NGR TQ 0344 7575). The archaeological work comprised the monitoring of the remediation ground works in two areas (25x30m and 19x8m) located at the north of the site. An archaeological evaluation, involving the excavation of six trenches, was also undertaken. Natural Shepperton Gravels were recorded across the site between 18.41m and 18.85 m AOD, cut by a palaeochannel through the central area and overlain by an Alluvium deposit recorded in most of the site, except the south, between 18.94m and 19.79m AOD. The natural deposits were cut by two undated ditches in trench 4,one of which ([4/006]) was possibly a field boundary. Extant subsoil was recorded in marginal areas to the north, east and west of the site. Elsewhere the natural deposits were overlain by made ground and modern overburden, only cut by the footings of late 20th century buildings |
