Abstract:		 Five trial pits were hand excavated by contractors under the supervision of MOLA to c.1 m below existing ground levels. This work was carried out prior to the proposed construction of an extension to the existing church building at the northern, eastern and southern area, and alterations to the rear churchyard including landscaping. Cemetery soils were uncovered in all five trial pits between 4.32 m OD and 4.84 m OD. Trial pit 1 produced what appeared to be a 19th Century cemetery soil profile containing a large amount of dis-articulated human bone. Also noted were frequent fragments of coffin lead and ex-situ coffin furniture (handles) suggesting that the ground had been heavily disturbed when still in use as a cemetery, either by stages of cemetery clearance or by dense re-cutting of new graves. Trial pits 2 and 3 located in the north yard (north of the Church) produced largely 19th Century construction rubble and made ground, as well as dis-articulated human bone. Trial pit 4, located in the gardens to the east of the Church, produced a soil profile reflecting the re-landscaping of the gardens and cemetery in the 1980's for the construction of the Tradescant Garden. Trial pit 5, near the south -east corner of the Church uncovered a number of burial ledgers and (presumably in-situ) brick vaults, suggesting that this area remains relatively undisturbed by the 80's landscaping. Excepting the brick vaults recorded within Trial pit 5, no in-situ graves or skeletons were recorded.
