Abstract: |
Four geoarchaeological boreholes were put down across the site at selected locations. Combined with previous geotechnical records, a model of the sub-surface stratigraphy indicates a sequence of Shepperton Gravel overlain by sands and organic sands, alluvium (including peat) and made ground. The Shepperton Gravel undulates across the site from >-2m OD in the north, to approximately 0m OD at its centre. This topographic high point may represent a gravel eyot: a possible foci for human activity. The thickness of the overlying sands and alluvium reflects that of the underlying topography. Further environmental archaeological assessment work was recommended. |
