Abstract:
During January 2018, five purposive geoarchaeological window samples (numbered MOLA-BH1 to MOLA-BH5) were sunk at the site. The report summarises the archaeological potential of the sediments revealed in boreholes taken across the site and makes recommendations for further work. By modelling the buried stratigraphy and preliminarily reconstructing the evolving landscape of the site, five deposits or facies of varying archaeological and palaeoenvironmental potential are identified and the impact of the proposed development on the deposits of interest is assessed. The site is situated on the western bank of the River Roding, a tidal tributary of the Thames. The underlying deposits consist of undulating Pleistocene floodplain gravels lying at around -1.46m OD at the lowest point although up to around 1m above OD in the north of the site. The gravels are covered by a layer of Holocene floodplain deposits (up to 3.8 thick) consisting of a lower and upper alluvium sandwiching a layer of peat in places. The site is sealed by 2.5-5.5m of made ground.
