Abstract:		 This archaeological assessment was undertaken in November 2011 to determine the potential implications of proposed building extensions, landscaping and the provision of a new playground for St Mary's Catholic School, Buckfast. The work was commissioned by Grainge Architects on behalf of the Diocese of Plymouth. The site lies within Dartmoor National Park. The assessment site comprises a walled property bounded to the north by the 1982 link road and to the east by Buckfast Road. The area is subdivided by a NNW-SSE aligned wall, with the building and grounds of St Mary's Convent to the west and St Mary's School to the east. The area lies on ground that slopes to the east towards the River Dart, although the school grounds have been almost completely levelled, resulting in a difference in height of approximately 1m between the two plots at the dividing wall. The southern half of the convent grounds slope to the south towards the mouth of a narrow valley. This part of the convent garden holds a small canalised stream that presumably issues from this valley and which is culverted within the school grounds.
