Abstract:		 In February and April 2020 Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out archaeological monitoring and recording at 46 - 47 St Andrews Street, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk (NGR TL 854 638; Figs. 1 - 2). The monitoring was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of a proposed three storey apartment building with basement level (West Suffolk Council Ref. DC/17/0688/FUL), based on advice from Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service Conservation Team (SCC AS-CT). The site lies within an area of archaeological potential recorded on the Suffolk Historic Environment Record. The SCC brief notes that St Andrew's Street follows the line of the medieval town ditch defenses and the site lies immediately outside and adjacent to the medieval town defenses. The town ditch is first documented in the 12th century, and has only been investigated along its eastern side. Here, it has been suggested that it may have been 4m+ deep and 10m+ wide, but its size had not been confirmed. It is suggested that the town ditch was some 4m deep but the presence of basements along the street frontage, in the potential location of the ditch, has removed substantial evidence and therefore it was not possible to confirm or discount the course of the ditch from observations at this site. The site is at least partially truncated and no other archaeological remains were observed.
