Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by Oakford Archaeology in October 2022 on land behind the Pearson Library, Exeter Cathedral, Exeter. The site was part of the rear garden plot of the first and second cannon’s house and a property known as ‘Three Chambers’, a tenement of medieval origin which housed minor clergy in the 15th century. Following the construction of the Pearson Library the gardens became part of the Three Chambers until its demolition in 1893, and the work was therefore required by the Archaeological Consultant to the Dean and Chapter of Exeter Cathedral. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the excavation of a new electrical service trench. The work involved the excavation of a single trench measuring 16.3m long, 0.3m wide and 0.5-1m deep. Inspection of the trench exposed deposits that possibly represent landscaping following the demolition of the ‘Three Chambers’, as well as deposits that have been interpreted as construction deposits associated with the construction of the Pearson in the late 19th century. Nothing of significance was found
