Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Benchmark Brickwork and Building to undertake an archaeological watching brief at No. 24 Endless Street, Salisbury, Wilts (NGR 414511 130214). This work was requested by Wiltshire Council as a condition of planning consent during work to refurbish and extend the premises to residential use. The site lies within the medieval city of Salisbury and within the Salisbury Conservation Area. The work comprised three small areas to the rear of No. 24 in which the ground level was reduced or excavated for new wall foundations. None of these excavations were of sufficient depth to penetrate to stratified deposits or expose the natural geology. The most significant findings comprised the discovery of a previously unrecorded late medieval or early post medieval tenement foundation, possibly of 17th century date, which formed the north boundary of the property. The foundation could be traced for a length of approximately 5 m and survived to a height of three courses. The presence of Greensand ashlar blocks indicates that, apart from providing a tenement boundary, it may also have supported a timber framed service range for No 24 Endless Street. The southern tenement boundary comprised a 19th century brick wall that was founded on recycled limestone blocks and gravestone fragments, which may have derived from refurbishment of St. Edmund's Church in 1865. Genealogical searches provided a plausible link between names inscribed on one gravestone and an outbreak of small pox, which was endemic in the 18th century with severe outbreaks in 1752.
