Summary

A small group of small pits were uncovered during the evaluation at the former substation by the Museum of London Archaeology and CgMs for the National Grid and Redrow homes ahead of proposed development. A relatively large concentration of later prehistoric finds were recovered from within the fills of these pits, possibly indicating the presence of nearby prehistoric occupation or activity.
