Abstract:		 A watching brief along the lawn during the excavation of foundation pads for a temporary classroom and a service trench revealed two previously unrecorded stretches of undated cobbled yard surface. An evaluation of three machine-excavated trenches north of the school revealed the exterior face of the west wall of the demolished abbey church, together with mortar screeds interpreted as construction deposits. Elsewhere on site, a number of successive levelling deposits of medieval date were cut by three pits fill with demolition rubble, two of probable 16th century date relating to post-dissolution sand extraction, one of later date possibly associated with early 19th century levelling during the construction of the adjacent stables. Later garden soils sealed these rubble deposits, and included part of a Victorian fountain. Finds were sparse but included disarticulated pieces of human bone and a medieval broad-head arrowhead.
