Abstract:		 A watching brief was undertaken as part of conservation and restoration works on the historic railings that delimit the Apartment 39 garden on the West Front of Hampton Court Palace. During excavation works, a number of significant and unexpected archaeological remains were revealed including two well preserved brick buildings. Both buildings produced clear dating evidence provided by architectural details, stratigraphic data and contextual material finds that confirmed a late 15th/early 16th century phase of construction. The buildings were likely demolished in the mid-16th century. Tudor buildings and the demolition rubble overlying them were partially truncated by a series of pits, probably associated with garden features during the early period of Grace and Favour residency in the mid-18th century. The project also provided the opportunity to look more closely at the phasing of the railings surrounding Apartment 39. The removal of some of the plinth stones exposed the brick footings beneath, revealing three clear phases of build.
