Abstract

In January 2012, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological watching brief at the Stockley Airport Junction section of the Crossrail scheme, situated on land beside Unit 306, Stockley Close, West Drayton. The work comprised a targeted watching brief during the de-silting of Broad’s Dock, an historic spur of from the Grand Union Canal. No archaeological remains, with the exception of the canal, were observed during the work. Natural geology, consisting of Langley Silts (brickearth) and underlying gravel was observed within the spoil recovered from excavation within the canal, suggesting natural geology was reached during the de-silting.
