Eltham Palace, Greenwich

In September 1999 the OAU undertook a watching brief at Eltham Palace, Greenwich, NGR TQ 425739 (Figure 1). No archaeologically significant deposits were noted in the Watching Brief trenches. However, a gravel path, part bordered by bricks, observed in the immediate vicinity of the trenches was investigated. This feature probably relates to the landscaping of this area in the 1930s. A brick border, dividing another gravel path from a flowerbed situated adjacent to the dry moat on the south side of the palace, was also recorded.
