Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by CgMs to undertake a programme of archaeological work on land at 77-89 Glenthorne Road, London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in advance of redevelopment. The site work consisted of an excavation phase, carried out between the 13th and 22nd May 2015, and a watching brief on the demolition of the existing building between the 2nd and 9th September 2015. The excavation revealed 4 inter-cutting Early Iron Age gullies and ditches in the south-eastern part of the site. Two of the features formed the continuance of those identified within earlier archaeological evaluation of the site. A post-medieval ditch, pit, and subsoil were also recorded in the south area of the site and have a likely date of 16th-19th century. The watching brief on the existing building, located within the centre and north of the site, revealed a reinforced concrete ground floor slab overlying c.1m of modern made ground over natural sand and gravel. The slab overlay large concrete foundation pads between 2-4m thick with piles within them. No archaeological remains survived beneath the footprint of the existing building. Natural sand and gravel deposits were recorded between 3.91m AOD and 4.20m AOD across the site. |
