Woolwich Riverside, Phase 9/10, A Blocks Archaeological Strip, Map and Record Report

Archaeological work, comprising strip, map and record excavation was
undertaken to the west of The Royal Arsenal site at Woolwich during
redevelopment by Berkeley Homes Ltd (Riverside Phase 9/10, A Blocks). A
ditch of possible Roman date was recorded together with pits and brick-lined
latrines of 18th and 19th century date. Several brick-built walls, probably
elements of the mid-19th century Woolwich Bath and Lecture Hall and the
1950s extension to the Woolwich Power Station were also revealed. A deep
basement pertaining to the power station had removed all earlier evidence
across most of the development site.
