Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring was carried out during the installation of a new drainage system at Salle Church. Evidence for at least one previously unknown earlier phase of church building was recorded to the north of the chancel. Three lengths of substantial mortared flint wall were revealed with evidence for their construction including post-holes for scaffolding and shuttering, and deposits of mortar and other debris including burnt material. Stratigraphic and artefactual evidence suggested an earlier medieval date for the walls. Some fragments of apparent metalworking waste suggested the likelihood of metalworking having occurred on site. A piece of worked stone of 12th-century date, re-used as a packing stone in a post-hole suggested that an earlier Saxo-Norman church may have previously stood on the site. The earlier medieval building was demolished and the rubble used as make-up material for the building of the 15th-century church which still stands on the site today. Monitoring of the groundworks for the drain around the rest of the church identified some rubble deposits to the north of the chancel relating to the demolition of the earlier medieval building, a small undated footing and some foundations for the 15th-century church. Other recorded archaeological deposits were of modern date (drainage features and make-up material for pathways etc). Finds included building material (brick and floor tile, worked stone, flint, mortar and plaster), pottery, window glass and bottle glass. Human bone was retrieved, in small amounts, from most of the trenches but no in situ burials were encountered. Human remains were bagged and stored safely and were given to the Vicar for reburial in the churchyard.
