Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of a trench required for the purpose of mending a leaking water main. This was located at the northern end of Victoria Street, within the verge, next to the Tesco superstore. The location is next to the historic line of the medieval city wall and next to the city ditch. The city wall at this point had been completely re-built and considerable groundworks had been undertaken during the construction of the ring-road during the late 1960's and the construction of the superstore during the early 1980's. An archaeological watching brief was required due to the unknown size of the trench, which was dependent upon the location, depth and nature of the leak, and its proximity to the scheduled city defences. The location is also within the Area of Archaeological Importance. A 2 metre long by 1.3m wide trench was excavated by mini-digger within the narrow verge to a maximum depth of 1.3m. Only deposits relating to the construction of the ring-road and the new length of wall were observed. The trench did not go into the Scheduled Area.
