Abstract:		 Border Archaeology was commissioned by Fletcher Homes (Shropshire) Ltd to complete the final stage of archaeological work relating to a programme of residential development at St Julian's Friars, situated within the medieval core of Shrewsbury. It should be noted that Border Archaeology's involvement relates only to access-road construction and not to any previous phases of development activity. This final phase of groundworks centred upon an area to the south of Beeches Lane and west of St Julian's Friars, encompassing the site of a new north-south access road layout incorporating the footings for a bridge spanning the 13th century town wall, which runs approximately east-west at this point. Groundworks comprised excavation and piling operations carried out either side of the wall. Additionally, a drawn and photographic record of the wall was compiled showing details of construction, damage and repair. Examination of the fabric revealed evidence of considerable post-medieval repair and underpinning. The upper section of the masonry also showed evidence of earlier impact, with much of the superstructure damaged or missing. Observation of groundworks to the north of the wall revealed evidence of considerable truncation of earlier deposits by 19th century cellarage. These cellars appeared to have incorporated the existing medieval fabric of the wall, which in places had been refaced with brick and render along its northern elevation. Groundworks to the south of the wall revealed a very substantial deposit of 19th or 20th century building demolition rubble, extending below the maximum excavation depth. No earlier deposits were attained.
