Abstract:		 The work at St. Anne's Charterhouse, Coventry consisted of the excavation of 11 trenches measuring 10 to 25m long, 3 test pits measuring 2m² and the monitoring of 5 window samples. The trenches were positioned both within the Precinct wall and externally near to an outbuilding and coach house. The southerly external trenches contained later post-medieval features with the remains of a brick structure being found overlaying earlier pits and 18th century planting trenches. The trench and test pit outside the coach house revealed a well preserved medieval wall with a layer of building rubble on one side and medieval garden soil beneath that. The building rubble is likely to be related to the dismantling of the monastery and was covered by clay during the 16th century. The trenches within the Precinct wall were positioned around the southern and eastern edges of the Great Cloister with the aim of investigating the monk's cells. The trenches around the southern edge of the cloister were deep and complex containing a large proportion of post-medieval features. The medieval features along this range increased in depth to the west and also in quality of preservation with the internal features from a monk's cell being found in the western end of this range. Walls were found close to their predicted locations, but a cell was found in the location of a garden which implies there is a change in the sequence. The trenches to the east of the cloister were shallower but still containing a large proportion of post-medieval activity. Medieval garden features were found with the remains of a latrine and pentice were identified for the first time.
