Abstract:		 An Archaeological Watching Brief was carried out by PCA at 90-92 Blackfriars Road. The watching brief recorded natural sandy gravel on the eastern area of the site at 1.6m below ground level. This deposit is consistent with the known underlying geology of the site as described by the British Geological Survey, the Kempton Park Gravel Member. Overlying the natural gravel across the site was a sequence of alluvial deposits, located at 0.9m below ground level and with a maximum thickness of 0.7m. This alluvial horizon consisted of sterile and homogenous clay deposits which contained no environmental potential nor anthropogenic material. Sealing the alluvial sequence across the site was a horizon of post-medieval made ground, recorded between 0.3m and 0.7m below ground level. On the eastern side of the site this deposit was 0.6m thick and is thought to date to the later post-medieval due to brick and tile fragments of this date observed as inclusions. This made ground represented an episode of landscaping potentially in preparation of redevelopment of the site in the late post-medieval period.
