Abstract:		 In July 2020, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological evaluation at Monks Walk, Half Acres, Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, CM23 2QP (NGR TL 48579 21676; Figs. 1 - 2). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of a detached dwelling (EHDC Approval Ref. 3/19/1311/FUL and 3/20/0097/VAR). It was required by the local planning authority (LPA) based on advice from Hertfordshire County Council Historic Environment Advisory Team (HCC HEAT). The site lies within an area of archaeological potential, as noted on the Hertfordshire Historic Environment Record (HER), within an area identified as Areas of Archaeological Significance No. 114 on the Local Plan. The area encompasses the historic core of the town, with its medieval origins. The site lies at the northernmost extent of the medieval town core, and is to the immediate north of The Chantry and Nos. 1, 2, 10 and 12 Half Acres on Hadham Road, which are Grade II listed. Historic cartographic sources consistently depict the site as undeveloped land, and as grounds associated with The Chantry to the south. The trial trench evaluation revealed no archaeological features or finds. Modern made ground layers were present, probably to create a level lawn.
