Abstract:		 Planning permission for the erection of a single-storey, nine-classroom building at Goldington Green Lower School, Bedford was granted by Bedford Borough Council (BBC). The mitigation strategy consisted of archaeological monitoring of groundworks and the investigation and recording of any archaeological remains that were revealed. The archaeological observation, investigation and recording were carried out between 24th April and 11th May 2017. Following limited ground reduction, the groundworks primarily comprised the excavation of 97 foundation pad pits, each measuring 0.75m wide by 0.75m long where excavated by machine bucket, or 1m in diameter where excavated by auger. The pits were excavated to a depth of 0.7-1.8m, as determined by the depth of the undisturbed natural geological deposits. No pre-modern archaeological features or deposits were encountered, although in places the ground had been heavily disturbed by recent building activity and services associated with the school and the demolition of a former swimming pool and temporary classroom.
