Abstract:
The site of the watching brief was located in the northern porch of the church covering an area of c. 10 square meters (Figure 2). The church is bounded by Streatham High Road to the south and east by Tooting Bec Gardens. The watching brief recorded natural brickearth at 1.60m BGL (Phase 1) in turn truncated by two east-west orientated inhumation facing east, which were dated to the post-medieval period. Evidence for the truncation of burials were identified in the form of a post-medieval levelling containing fragments of human remains (Figure 3, Phase 2) which was in turn truncated by the construction cut for the construction of the north porch during the first half of the 19th century (Phase 3.1). A later curvilinear masonry structure (Phase 3.2) was interpreted as a corridor leading to a basement located to the south of the north porch which was later blocked and backfilled during the modern or very late post-medieval period and sealed by made ground and levelling for the construction of the floor of the porch (Phase 4).
