Bridport Site, Three Mills, Bromley-by-Bow
TQ 38250 82800; Stuart Holden; Evaluation; 25th March 2003; TMI03
Two trenches were opened. Alluvial deposits were recorded at c. 2.7m OD and c. 3.m OD in the two trenches.
Disturbance had already been caused by a N-S sewer through the C of the site and construction of the river wall, its tie-backs and fuel storage tanks. An alluvial deposit contained a single of possibly late medieval transitional red ware dating to the 15th or early 16th century. Further alluvial layers from the 18th and 19th centuries was covered with made ground from the 19th - 20th centuries.
