Abstract:		 Archaeology South-East was commissioned by English Heritage to undertake an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the restoration of Battle's Abbey's Walled Garden and improvements to signage in other parts of the site. Although little of archaeological significance was encountered during tree planting in the Walled Garden or during the excavation of holes for new signage elsewhere, stonework masonry encountered below the brickwork of the northern wall of the Walled Garden could be of some antiquity. Similarly, masonry encountered immediately to the north-west of the Walled Garden remains undated but is probably medieval in origin and may form part of the Abbey's infirmary. Material recovered in the vicinity suggests demolition at the time of the Dissolution with limited evidence of previous investigation known to have been undertaken in the 1870s. A subsequent Ground Penetrating Radar Survey provided clear evidence of the presence of various elements of a complex of buildings in the vicinity, associated with the infirmary, which appears to lie to the west of the encountered remains. Although the recorded masonry forms part of one of the buildings associated with the Abbey's infirmary, the function(s) of the building remains unclear.
