Abstract:		 An evaluation of the old playing fields to the east of Thurleston High School and the monitoring of footing trenches through an adjacent demolished wing of the school revealed varying degrees of disturbance and truncation. Despite this, three ditches were recognised. Two of these were of comparative recent date and have been matched to boundary ditches recorded on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of 1881. A third ditch was of considerable size, of up to 6m width and 1m depth, and was approximately north to south running. Tip lines within the fills suggest a bank along the ditch's western edge. Finds from the upper fills suggest a medieval date for this feature. Unstratified finds of later prehistoric (Iron Age?) and later 17th century date were recovered from the topsoil.
