The Library, Middle Temple Lane, London

In March 1997 the OAU undertook a watching brief at The Library of the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple, Middle Temple Lane, London (NGR TQ 3131 8079), during the excavation of a small foundation prior to the insertion of a new external fire escape staircase. No cut features were seen, but a quantity of finds were retrieved from the subsoil, which is thought to represent demolition rubble resulting from bomb damage to the standing building during World War 2. Nothing further was seen.
