Abstract:		 In December 2011, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out a field evaluation at the Abbey Centre, Abingdon (NGR SU 497 971). The work was commissioned by Hunter Evans Ltd on behalf of Scottish Widows Investment Partnership, and was part of a programme of predetermination investigative works relating to a planning application submitted to Vale of the White Horse District Council (11/02239/FUL). The evaluation revealed a loessic soil horizon overlying the natural terrace gravel, which was cut by pits dating to the 1st - 2nd century AD. The fills of the pits were overlain by a homogeneous silty deposit which may have represented the re-worked upper fills of the earlier features. A second phase of pit digging was dated to the 11th - 12th century, although the relationship between these later pits and the homogeneous silts was uncertain due to truncation from later features. An east-west aligned limestone wall footing was also revealed. This is likely to date to the post medieval period.
