Abstract:		 In August and September 2019 Archaeological Solutions Limited carried out archaeological monitoring and recording at Upper Barclay Street, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP4 1HT (NGR TM 166 445; Figs. 1 - 2). The monitoring was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of a new car park at Upper Barclay Street, Ipswich, Suffolk (Ipswich Borough Council Approval Ref. IP/18/00042). It was required based on advice from Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service Conservation Team (SCC AS-CT). The overall ground reduction was shallow and only modern (19th - 20th century) made ground layers were revealed in plan. Underlying archaeological features, where present, will have been preserved. The excavation of deep service trenches revealed L1002 and L1003, and the layers contained a relatively high concentration mid 9th - mid 12th century pottery sherds, potentially associated with local pottery production or urban consumption; as well as a small animal bone assemblage that notably contained a butchered radius from a brown bear, which may have arrived as a pelt or a performing animal into the port town. The uppermost layer, L1002, was 0.20 - 1.24m below the level of the ground reduction. It was thick (0.94 - 1.31m) and extensive (recorded in all Sample Sections 1 - 8). Below L1002, L1003 was thick (0.23 - 0.40m+) and recorded in Sample Sections 1 - 3. It may have been more extensive as the base of L1003 was not exposed in Sample Sections 4 - 8. Layer L1003 also contained relatively modern CBM and a post-medieval bone handle but these finds are likely intrusive. The monitoring of the deep excavations also recovered predominantly mid 9th- mid 12th century pottery. Just one medieval (14th - mid 16th) and two post-medieval (17th-18th century) pottery sherds were found.
