Land west of the Elmsleigh Centre, Staines
Evaluation by G Hayman of SCAU, for Dusco Asset Management, of land proposed for an extension to the Elmsleigh Centre. A trench immediately west of the existing building found that beneath the levels of modern disturbance only 18th to 19th century deposits survived above natural silts. At the northern end of this trench the edge of the 1974-5 Elmsleigh House excavation was revealed. An auger survey was carried out to determine the depth at which gravel underlay the silts.
