Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out during extensive alterations to Thunderley Hall, including the construction of a garage to the north, outbuildings to the west, a landscape retaining wall on the west side and an extension to the south wing. The current hall was originally built in the 15th century and has later extensions. It is a Grade II listed building situated within a moated enclosure which itself is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The archaeological watching brief was conducted on all intrusive groundworks. The foundation trenches to a new garage revealed a brick and flint wall, a brick wall and associated tile foor and two brick drains. To the west in the retaining wall trench a small unmortared brick wall was also recorded. The works to the south and west revealed further brick structures and a possible backfilled part of the moat. A brick oven base and exterior building was discovered against the south wall of the hall's southern wing. It is concluded that further archaeological remains are present in the vicinity of the hall and that any future works should be archaeologically monitored.
