Abstract:
During September 2008, a watching brief was undertaken to the rear 110 High Street, Stony Stratford. The work was required to monitor any archaeology disturbed during building works. Up to a metre of dark re-deposited soil covered the natural orange river sands. Several limestone footings for demolished walls were observed in the foundation trenches. Other than a few fragments of red peg tile no finds to date either the levelling layer or the walls were observed during the watching brief. It would however seem likely that the walls were associated with the former Horseshoe Inn, which was demolished during the late 18th or early 19th century. The two wings extending from the school may also originally have been part of the inn. The only other feature recorded during the watching brief was part of a large truncated pit which pre dated the walls. A single sherd of late medieval reduced ware pottery and a deer antler were recovered from the fill of this pit. During the 19th century the site was within the grounds of St Paul's School, and is on the line of a demolished wing extending westwards from the school. Elements of a second wing survive to the north of the above wing and would seem to stylistically pre date both the school and 110 High Streets early 19th century build date.
