Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Portakabin Limited on behalf of the Department of Education to undertake an archaeological watching brief following preliminary ground investigation works and archaeological evaluation on a parcel of land measuring approximately 483 m2 located at Central Hall, St Mary Street, Southampton SO14 1NF. The investigation area is centred on National Grid Reference 442525 111537. The preceding archaeological evaluation comprised the excavation of two trial trenches along with monitoring of a borehole survey. Due to the results of these works this watching brief was recommended to ensure the preservation of any archaeological remains by record. The watching brief monitored and recorded the excavation of 18 trenches for construction pads and a single trench for a drainage pipe. The excavations for the supporting pads ranged from approximately 0.6 m - 1 m square, with 2 measuring 2.3 m by 0.8 m, to a depth of up to 1.5 m. The drainage trench measured approximately 0.6 m by 8 m by 2 m deep. As with the evaluation, no archaeological features were observed during the works. The soil sequence was consistent across the investigation area and indicated modern made ground deposits overlying agricultural soils. Archaeological artefacts were recovered from the disturbed brick earth which included pottery dating to the mid-13th and mid-14th century.
