Description

Southwark's archaeology has been studied for many years. In some areas of the borough there is
a considerable level of knowledge about the character of archaeology. This work has informed the
planning of archaeology priority areas across the borough, but these are now large areas that
cover archaeology of multiple characters and significances. A more refined approach is now
required to protect and preserve the archaeology of the borough
Southwark is commissioning this archaeological study and report for three purposes:
1. to inform updated archaeological, conservation and design/ character policies in the new
Southwark Plan, expected to be at Regulation 19 stage by 2027. The work should be
completed and approved by the Council by Friday 30 May 2025.
2. To aid developers and external consultant teams in their assessment and analysis of sites
3. As a public record of the archaeological (buried) resource within the borough.
