Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A programme of archaeological monitoring and recording was conducted during groundworks for the extension of a kitchen and erection of a bin store and cycle shelter at St Nicholas Church of England Primary School. Three areas were examined: Area 1 was located in the central part of the site over the proposed kitchen extension. Area 2 was located to the west of Area 1 on the limits of the school buildings, and Area 3 was located along the eastern boundary of the site. A service trench between Areas 1 and 3 was also monitored. Area 1 exposed a series of ditches, sealed by a layer, immediately below the tarmac, which yielded only Romano-British pottery. The earlier fills of these ditches also contained small quantities of Romano-British pottery along with animal bones, a corroded metal object and a small amount of oyster and mussel shells. There was a significant deposit of burnt clay in one of the fills which may have come from a dismantled oven or kiln. Areas 2 and 3 were characterised by relatively modern intervention, possibly when the school was originally constructed. Although some pottery and metal items were recovered from this area, they occurred within deposits which also contained modern artefacts such as marbles. The service trench stratigraphy was similar to that exposed within Areas 2 and 3 and contained no significant archaeological features despite its proximity to Area 1.
