Abstract:		 Between 25th November and 4th December 2013, Oxford Archaeology undertook an archaeological evaluation at the site of former Provost Cells, Southgate Street Winchester in advance of re-development proposals. Three trenches were excavated, each of which revealed significant archaeological remains. Two phases of the defensive bank that formed part of the southern defences of early Roman Winchester were revealed. The bank overlay a buried soil containing Early-Middle Iron Age pottery. A metalled surface was contemporary with the earlier bank, possibly part of an intra-mural street. Pottery from the later bank was dated to AD 120-160. A later metalled surface, probably an intra-mural street and associated with 10th-12th century pottery, was found to cut into the Roman bank. Flanking its south side were two posthole/pits, also associated with 10th-12th century pottery and containing smithing debris, may form part of a contemporary structure. To the north were two pits of 10th-12th century date and third dated to c 1350-1500. The archaeological remains in two of the trenches were sealed below a thick accumulation of post-medieval garden soils which were were cut by two large 19th century pits.
