Abstract:		 Intermittent archaeological watching briefs were undertaken over a period of seven months whilst large scale renovation work was being undertaken. A map of 1633 showed a 'New Church Yarde' in the area of the future Hayward's House. A workhouse also lay within the site as shown in a map of 1816. During excavations a crushed chalk surface, possibly a Roman feature designed to prevent beached ships from sticking in the mud, was revealed as well as a large amount of human bone. The human bone was seen as being part of the cemetery which it was thought had late medieval origins, and due to later truncations, it was thought that the cemetery was in continuous use as part of the workhouse burial ground.
