Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken in order to fulfil conditions set for planning consent ahead of flood defence works. The development lay in an area of high archaeological potential, close to the supposed site of St. Leonard's Leper Hospital. Previous excavation to the north-west of the site had located the leper burial ground associated with the hospital. No features of archaeological significance were revealed during the watching brief though it was clear that the ground had been artificially raised and levelled, most probably during earlier flood defence works. Several sherds of post-medieval pottery were recovered during the trenching. [Au(abr)]
