Abstract:		 A large excavation was undertaken within what was formerly the lay settlement of Barnwell Priory. The earliest remains uncovered comprised a crouched burial (dated to 800-546 cal BC (95.4% probability)) and part of a prehistoric field system. At least nine medieval plots or properties were revealed, including parts of the frontages where post-built structures and clay floors survived. The back plots contained masses of intercutting pits, clay-lined tanks, a number of ovens and ten wells. Most of the wells produced large quantities of pottery, including complete jugs, while two also contained waterlogged wooden items. Over 500 fragments of architectural stone were also recovered, most of which probably relate to the post-Dissolution robbing of Barnwell Priory. Much of this material had been re-used to line a latrine pit that was probably part of post-Dissolution building of some status. Later building foundations included a brick-lined cellar (possibly part of an inn) that had been backfilled with debris from an intense fire - a large conflagration is recorded in Barnwell in 1731 that destroyed 50 dwellings. The large assemblage of 17th and 18th century finds, including a notable collection of clay tobacco pipes, is important as surprisingly little is known about the domestic market for ceramics at this period. Evidence of Georgian and Victorian development and urban infilling was found, including the remains of terraced houses and gardens, as well as three pubs. Tile and brick floors were found, in addition to cellars, brick and wood-lined wells and cobbled passageways. The cellars in particular produced notable finds assemblages, including several plates that originated in some of the Cambridge colleges. Domestic occupation of these houses only finally ceased in the 1960s, when the area was cleared and redeveloped for light industrial use.
