An Archaeological Desk-based Assessment Preston, S Reading : Thames Valley Archaeological Services, 2005, 25pp, figs, tabs, refs Work undertaken by: Thames Valley Archaeological Services A desk-based assessment was undertaken on a proposed development area. The site occupied a position next to the parish church in an area whose layout appeared to have been dominated by medieval burgage plots. There was a strong possibility that medieval occupation remains may have been present on site. Although much of the site had been built over, some areas of archaeological potential may have still remained undamaged. A further field evaluation was recommended. [Au(adp)] (B.01.1305) TQ22958965 {6E03518D-BBD6-460D-87B7-40375F0C67F7} Parish: Hendon Postal Code: NW4 4QJ 13 SUNNINGFIELDS ROAD 13 Sunningfields Road, London NW4 Meager, R London : CgMs, 2005, 28pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: CgMs A desk-based assessment found that the site had a low potential for the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Anglo-Saxon, medieval and post-medieval period and a moderate potential for the Roman period. Past post-depositional impacts at the study site had been severe over the eastern part of the study site.

London Borough of Harrow. Archaeological Assessment Lyon, J London : Museum of London Archaeology Service, 2005, 33pp, colour pls, figs, tabs, refs Work undertaken by: Museum of London Archaeology Service A desk-based assessment has found the principal potential for the site was for the Roman period. The crest of Brockley Hill had long been thought of as the location of Sulloniacae, a Roman settlement, mentioned in a contemporary document (Antonine Itinerary) as being 12 miles from London and nine miles from St. Albans. No evidence of this settlement had yet been discovered. The site lay immediately to the north of a Scheduled Ancient Monument, the Roman pottery kilns and settlement alongside Watling Street.

An Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Grant, J & Newton, A Hertford : Archaeological Solutions, 2005, 18pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: Archaeological Solutions The assessment revealed that there were no known archaeological remains within the development site and no finds recovered from it. Activity had occurred to the west of the study area but was not thought to have encroached into it. [Au(adp)] (B.01.1308) TQ41757068 {E31CEEAD-415F-4806-B76B-3DFCF49DF977} Parish: Bromley Postal Code: BR7 5EP SUNDRIDGE PARK CONFERENCE & TRAINING CENTRE, BROMLEY Sundridge Park Conference & Training Centre, Bromley, Kent Upson, A Salisbury : Wessex Archaeology, 2005, 19pp, colour pls, figs, refs Work undertaken by: Wessex Archaeology The site lay within Sundridge Park estate, thought to have origins around AD 1200. Research had suggested that the archaeological potential of the site was extremely low, and that the current development proposals, which located new buildings almost entirely within the footprints of the existing buildings, was therefore unlikely to have had an adverse impact on the archaeological deposits. [Au(abr)] Camden (B.01.1309) TQ3055882538 {F5CC1C3D-42A1-4ED3-9771-94A4C0BECA72} Parish: St. Pancras Postal Code: WC1H 8JB WESTMINSTER KINGSWAY COLLEGE, KINGS CROSS CENTRE, GRAY'S INN ROAD Westminster Kingsway College, Kings Cross Centre, Gray's Inn Road, London, WC1. London Borough of Camden. Archaeological Impact Assessment Miles, A London : Museum of London Archaeology Service, 2005, 34pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: Museum of London Archaeology Service Very little archaeological deposits were likely to be present on the site, although occasional stray finds of prehistoric and Roman material have been found in the vicinity. Previous activity will have removed any archaeological deposits in the area occupied by buildings.

An Archaeological Impact Assessment Report Miles, A London : Museum of London Archaeology Service, 2005, 27pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: Museum of London Archaeology Service Archaeological Investigations Project 2005 Desk-based Assessments Greater London Little archaeological deposits were likely to survive on the site, as the area had been terraced and landscaped during the construction of the present buildings. No indication of any potential archaeological deposits could be seen from the borehole and trial pit logs.

Roman burials, buildings, quarry pits and ditches, medieval and post-medieval features relating to the Bishop of Salisbury's inn and post-medieval buildings seen on historic maps. The proposed refurbishment involves the excavation of five lift pits.

It was therefore considered improbable that significant archaeological remains would have survived across the bulk of the study site.

Archaeological Investigations Project 2005 Desk-based Assessments Greater London A desk-based assessment established that the site was in an area of known archaeological and historic significance. The archaeological potential for the recovery of prehistoric deposits was high. The potential for Roman, Saxon and medieval periods was defined as low to moderate and that for encountering post-medieval was low.

The eastern half of the site was formerly occupied by a large basemented cinema built in 1934. This building was demolished in 1986 to construct the existing supermarket. Archaeological remains were not anticipated to survive.
