Abstract:		 Between August 2008 and March 2011, Oxford Archaeology South (OAS) carried out historic building recording and an archaeological watching brief during works at Brasenose College Kitchens, Oxford. Photographic recording was undertaken in the areas affected by to the works, which included a series of 20thcentury buildings to the south of the Buttery that were to be demolished. Building recording concentrated on the cellars beneath the Buttery and Hall where alterations were to take place. Both contain elements of the original, 16th-century college building in the stonework of the lower walling and later 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th-century additions and reworking. The removal of panelling within the Eckersley room revealed a section of 16thcentury timber frame, in a partition wall thought to have been built during the late 19th-century reworking of the kitchen by Jackson. Fixed to the timber frame were a series of wooden panels decorated with painted stars on a black background. The overall design is very rough in its execution but it is not thought to date to the same phase as the walling. The west elevation of the Eckersley room contained evidence for a former fireplace, larger than that seen today. Below ground works were in advance of the excavation of a new gas trench and the conversion of an existing coal cellar into a boiler room, the construction of a temporary kitchen and dining marquee, and the excavation of a lift pit, cellar and general groundworks. Evidence for a building and associated pits that pre-dated the construction of the 16th-century College buildings were found. In addition, structural evidence for an internal wall within the Buttery, floors within the Servery and walls forming the 19th-century College Rooms and Scullery were identified. Much of the site had been landscaped in the 19th-century.
