Crossrail Broadgate Ticket Hall Excavated Evaluation and GWBs, Fieldwork Report (XSM10) C257-MLA-T1-RGN-CRG03-50014 v2 Non-technical summary This report covers a summary of the results from archaeological fieldwork carried out by Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) on the site of the future Crossrail Broadgate Ticket Hall, Liverpool Street, London EC2M, within the City of London. The site consists of the new utilities corridor and other utilities diversions within the Broadgate Ticket Hall construction worksite. The report was commissioned from MOLA by Crossrail Ltd. The phases of fieldwork covered in this report include the utilities corridor, sewer shafts MHS1 and MHS2-100 and the open cut sewer diversion. A sewer heading leading from MHS2-100 was undertaken as a general watching brief. This fieldwork follows the initial phase of archaeological evaluation in 2010–2011 (MOLA for Crossrail 2012, C257-MLA-X-RGN-CRG02-50064 [v2]) and 2011–2012 (MOLA for Crossrail 2012, C257-MLA-X-XCS-CRG02-50012 [v2]); the current report amalgamates these results in order to further inform the forthcoming excavation of the future ticket hall. Natural terrace gravels were reached in every trench, overlain by waterlain deposits of alluvial clay interspersed with occasional bands of gravel. These are thought to represent episodes of flooding from the Walbrook stream. The eastern edge of the stream itself was present at the western side of the site, running north–south. While a small group of redeposited struck flints was recovered during the fieldwork, there was no tangible evidence for prehistoric activity on the site itself. Evidence was found for several phases of Roman activity, dating to the early 2nd century AD, demonstrating water management in this area of the Walbrook valley. Two timber gates from this period had been laid at the water’s edge, presumably to create a platform. Other forms of waterside activity appear to have continued into the later 2nd and possibly 3rd centuries: further remains of a minor east–west Roman road, seen previously during excavations south of Eldon Street and thought to have been seen in fieldwork on the site in 2011 (Crossrail 2011d), probably led to a route across the channel. To the south of the road and the east of the waterway, Roman ditches, pits and dump layers represent activity in what would have been a boggy area, prone to flooding from the channel, which itself contained a number of human skulls, probably washed in from established burial grounds upstream. A number of residual medieval finds were recovered from post-Roman features, but few in situ medieval deposits have been identified, and none associated with St Mary Bethlehem Hospital. The post-Roman to early post-medieval sequence is characterised largely by a series of marsh deposits. These were sealed across the whole site by 16th-century reclamation deposits, laid deliberately to consolidate ground for the establishment of the Bethlehem Burial Ground. In addition to these dumps, a group of elm timber piles were recorded running NNE to SSW. These are thought to have provided essential stability through the marshy ground directly below the original 16th-century cemetery western boundary wall. A segment of brick wall represented part of that early construction. To the east, further timber piles and sections of a brick and stone wall were recorded as part of a 17th-century rebuild. A total of 72 in situ post-medieval burials from the Bethlehem Burial Ground were recorded during this phase, increasing the number of archaeologically excavated in situ burials on this site to 373. i Document uncontrolled once printed.

Worked bone offcuts recovered during this latest phase of fieldwork, primarily derived from the backfill of a trench dug to remove building material from the 17th- century cemetery perimeter wall, has added to this important assemblage. One aim of future fieldwork will be to establish whether this material was deposited both during the use of the burial ground and after it was no longer used for burials. The site represents a rare chance to explore and define Roman extra-mural activity within this area, with a high potential for further Roman remains, as well as more 16th to 18th-century burials which will help to further our knowledge and understanding of society, life, death and burial during this time. The archaeological results from this phase of work at Liverpool Street will be used by the Crossrail Project Archaeologist to revise and finalise the mitigation strategy for the site. ii Document uncontrolled once printed.

    Death, Time and Commerce: Innovation and Conservatism in Styles of Funerary Material Culture in 18Th-19Th Century London

    Death, Time and Commerce: innovation and conservatism in styles of funerary material culture in 18th-19th century London Sarah Ann Essex Hoile UCL Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD Declaration I, Sarah Ann Essex Hoile confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis explores the development of coffin furniture, the inscribed plates and other metal objects used to decorate coffins, in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century London. It analyses this material within funerary and non-funerary contexts, and contrasts and compares its styles, production, use and contemporary significance with those of monuments and mourning jewellery. Over 1200 coffin plates were recorded for this study, dated 1740 to 1853, consisting of assemblages from the vaults of St Marylebone Church and St Bride’s Church and the lead coffin plates from Islington Green burial ground, all sites in central London. The production, trade and consumption of coffin furniture are discussed in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 investigates coffin furniture as a central component of the furnished coffin and examines its role within the performance of the funeral. Multiple aspects of the inscriptions and designs of coffin plates are analysed in Chapter 5 to establish aspects of change and continuity with this material. In Chapter 6 contemporary trends in monuments are assessed, drawing on a sample recorded in churches and a burial ground, and the production and use of this above-ground funerary material culture are considered.

    Case Study: Looking After Customers

    Case Study: Looking after customers Focus on the customer Recommendations for future projects to improve the delivery of infrastructure projects to maintain a focus on customers Throughout the Thameslink Programme the top priority was to look after customers through: • maintaining train service capacity wherever possible • understanding the touch points prior to, during and after journeys • identifying the best journey options • providing an excellent communications campaign covering each stage of the programme • highlighting the benefits achieved – ‘This is why… ‘ • providing ticket acceptance on alternative routes and types of transport • recruiting additional staff to assist during the major engineering works • encouraging volunteers from the Train Operating Companies (TOCs), Network Rail and Department for Transport to assist. Maintaining train service capacity where possible For each of the stages of the programme which required changes in train services both during engineering works and post the network changes, the TOCs and Network Rail focused on passenger numbers and journeys with emphasis on the peak hours of travel to develop timetables providing required capacity. Major timetable changes, for example the Charing Cross run-throughs, where trains to Charing Cross did not stop at London Bridge station between January 2015 and August 2016 and the Cannon Street run-throughs, where trains to Cannon Street did not stop at London Bridge station between 29 August 2016 to January 2018 were fully consulted along with the May 2018 timetable changes.

  • London Bridge Station Redevelopment Institution of Structural Engineers: Structural Transformation Award

    London Bridge Station Redevelopment Institution of Structural Engineers: Structural Transformation Award

    London Bridge Station Redevelopment Institution of Structural Engineers: Structural Transformation Award PROJECT SUMMARY LOCATION London, UK PROJECT VALUE £880M CLIENT Network Rail ENGINEERS Arcadis WSP joint venture CONTRACTOR Costain ARCHITECT Grimshaw STATUS Completed January 2018 PROJECT DESCRIPTION INTRODUCTION The London Bridge Station Redevelopment project has completely transformed the station. Since the 19th century, the through tracks on the northern part of the site evolved separately from the southern terminating tracks. The project brought the two parts together for the first time, creating a unified station with clear routes for passengers changing trains; accessing London Underground, buses and taxis; or walking or cycling. This transformation has been made possible by excellent, creative structural engineering; innovative designs allowed the redevelopment to be carried out safely, while train services continued to operate throughout. The structures were designed to be elegant and efficient, and to minimise long-term maintenance. The redevelopment of London Bridge is part of the Government-sponsored Thameslink Programme, which is an ambitious programme of enhancements to transform north-south travel through London. It delivers: • New, longer and more spacious trains running through central London – every 2-3 minutes at peak. • Improved connections to more destinations on an expanded Thameslink network. • More robust tracks and modern signalling, using digital railway technology to make journeys more reliable. Page 1 of 6 London Bridge Station Redevelopment Institution of Structural Engineers: Structural Transformation Award HISTORY London Bridge became the first railway terminus in the capital when the London & Greenwich Railway opened in 1836. The line was elevated for its full length of 5.5km on brick viaducts connected by bridges, in order to function independently of the road network.
