Abstract:		 Border Archaeology was instructed by Speller Metcalfe Malvern Ltd on behalf of Marches Housing Association to carry out a programme of archaeological excavation of the former car park at Kemble House Aubrey Street Hereford. The site lies within the vicinity of the 'King's Ditch' a natural defile running north -south to the W of Broad Street which was considered by the noted Herefordshire antiquary Alfred Watkins to mark the western boundary of an early enclosure whose opposite side lay along the eastern side of the Cathedral Close. Remains of a corduroy road of oak logs were recovered during observation of service trenching on King Street in 1980 from which C14- dates of the 10th to 12th century were obtained. This appeared to represent an early medieval crossing-point over the waterlogged deposits of the King's Ditch. The possibility that earlier timbers survived at a greater depth suggested the presence of earlier surfaces (Thomas and Boucher 2002, 24-5).
