Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by Archaeology South East on the proposed new site for Rainham Interchange and Library, Rainham, London Borough of Havering (NGR: TQ 521 820) between 18th and 21st August 2009 for CgMs Consulting Ltd on behalf of their client. Five archaeological trenches were excavated to a cumulative length of 100m in advance of a proposed redevelopment. Three of the trenches contained archaeological features of Late Iron Age/Roman ( AD 10-70), medieval (c.1350-1450) and post-medieval date. The features included four Late Iron Age/early Roman pits and one linear feature of the same date, a medieval ditch and two post-medieval rubbish pits. In addition, three undated linears were revealed. Some modern intrusion was present within the trenches. The natural geology was variable at the site and comprised a combination of reddish-orange sandy clays and orange and yellow sandy gravels, which were encountered at a maximum height of 2.38m AOD in the northeast of the site, falling away to 1.09m AOD in the west. All features were sealed with a combination of subsoil and made ground overlain by topsoil.
