Abstract: |
The excavation of a single trench, Trench 1, in the courtyard of Apartment 35 at Hampton Court Palace highlighted several phases of activity dating from the Tudor period onwards despite the vicissitudes inflicted by several modern intrusions including multiple modern services. These phases of activity were for the most part represented by substantial structures including the stepped brick foundation of a Tudor turret, a severely truncated 17th-18th century stair foundation, a later post-medieval or early modern brick culvert, and a large, modern brick and concrete mass that filled the void resulting from the collapse or demolition of that culvert. No evidence of archaeological remains or deposits that pre-dated the 16th century, such as those belonging to Giles Daubeney's late medieval moated manor, were encountered during the investigation. Sand and gravel natural was encountered within boreholes in the base of Trench 1 at heights between 8.10-8.26m OD. |
