Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of three trenches needed to mole a replacement water pipe within the car park close to the East Street / Ethelbert Street Junction. The trenches were excavated by machine under close archaeological supervision. Trench 1 (closest to the southern side of East Street, revealed the foundations for a well constructed stone wall, which ran along the frontage of East Street. At a depth of 0.85m, the top of well compacted, clean gravel was encountered which appears to represent the top of the Saxon Rampart. Trench two was excavated to a depth of 0.95m through a well mixed layer of garden soil. No other deposits were noted within this trench. Trench 3 was excavated into a layer of loose rubble and scalpings which had been severely affected by a water leak, no archaeological deposits were encountered. The presence of the stone wall within trench one was of interest as this provides an indication of the material used in the construction of features which are apparent on Taylor's map of 1775. The wall is thought to pre-date the 18th century. The top of the rampart at this location has not been recorded before and will provide useful information when taking into account future works within this area.
