Abstract:		 Anglesey Abbey house is converted from the remains of an Augustinian Priory and the present dining room is in the medieval undercroft. The vaulting for this undercroft is supported on two pillars. In recent years some spalling of these pillars has been observed which may be caused by rising damp. The purpose of this archaeological investigation was to help identify the cause of spalling by excavating on one side of the foundations of one of the pillars, below the present modern floor and specifically to locate a possible raised water table. Excavation was possible to a depth of 0.60m as space was restricted once the original 13th century foundations were encountered and exposed. Subsequently, a hand operated auger was used to bore into the soils for a further 40cm. The water table was not encountered and no other evidence for the cause of the spalling was identified within this investigation.
