Abstract:
The watching brief consisted of up to 1.50m of ground reduction within a street level courtyard at the rear of the site, located at c. 4.27m AOD, and up to 1.10m of ground reduction within the existing basement of the extant building, located at c.1.53m AOD. The work revealed a sequence of red and yellow brick walls, attributed to the remains of outbuildings located within the rear gardens/courtyards of the properties fronting Tooley Street, cutting into a sequence of post-medieval dumping and levelling layers believed to represent post-medieval land levelling and possible reclamation within and around the intertidal channels in the Southwark area. The lowest deposits observed within the archaeological sequence consisted of alluvial and peaty clay deposits with post-medieval inclusions, such as peg tile. It is uncertain whether these deposits represent deliberate backfill/levelling of the site, or the natural silting of an intertidal channel during the post-medieval period. Natural deposits were not encountered.
