Abstract:		 (OA) carried out an archaeological evaluation between the 17th and 28th January 2004 at Telephone House, 70-75 High Street, Southampton, on behalf of CgMs Consulting. The desk-based assessment produced by CgMs had established that the site was known to contain the probable remains of a medieval Franciscan Friary and its associated cemetery, indicating the site to be one of potentially significant high archaeological value. The evaluation comprised the excavation of five trenches located in accessible areas around the presently existing structure of Telephone House. The evaluation revealed the presence of surviving medieval occupation deposits on the site represented by a series of inter-cutting pits, possible structural remains and a group of up-to at least six burials, all of which appear contemporary in date with, and relate to, occupation of the site by the Franciscan Friary founded in 1233 to 1234. The continuation of occupation into the fifteenth/sixteenth century on the site was suggested by the presence of further pits and possible contemporary structural deposits, although the surviving limestone rectangular structure and well may date to the later sixteenth or even late seventeenth century. The evaluation did reveal the presence of the in-filled remains of what is believed to have been a former Second World War air raid shelter situated at the south eastern end of the site.
