Abstract:		 The client has commissioned Albion Archaeology to undertake archaeological evaluation associated with a pre-planning enquiry to the Local Planning Authority (LPA). The site is immediately south of the site of Ravenstone Priory, an Augustinian establishment, which is a Scheduled Monument of national significance. The evaluation, focussed on the footprint of the southern extension, a trench was opened to investigate part of the footprint of the development proposal, whilst maintaining a stand-off from both the existing building to the north and a low garden wall to the west. The investigation revealed modern disturbance below the top of the gravel surface.Below this, stone demolition debris was revealed containing stone architectural fragments. Investigation of this deposit revealed a stone floor and associated wall robber trench in the north, whilst in the SE a series of features including a robber trench and underlying mortar footing were exposed. The investigation recovered ten pieces of architectural stonework, together with painted glass and a small amount of pottery and unpainted wall plaster. In summary, the evaluation has revealed a series of features which are likely to be associated with the former priory. Although the form of the floor cannot be linked to a church, it would appear to be of high status. However, the identification of the remains of walls, including one substantial example in the vicinity, when taken with the previous findings, including sequential floors and a column base, would suggest the remains are part of the priory church.
