Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out at St. Mary's Church by John Moore Heritage Services during the ground-works for a new toilet block and connecting corridor. The site was located between the Chantry House, a 16th century timber-framed building, and the eastern end of the church, an area previously disturbed by the construction of a boiler house. The watching brief followed on from a geophysical survey and field evaluation which suggested that earliest surviving evidence was likely to be of post-medieval date. No deposits or structures pre-dating the Chantry House were identified during the evaluation, nor was there any evidence relating to its earliest use. The watching brief reinforced the conclusions of the evaluation and uncovered a succession of burials. The earliest pre-date the late 14th century St. Leonard's Chapel and the north aisle of the church. Later burials, of 18th or 19th century date, included two examples of brick-vaulted tombs, both of which were hand excavated prior to demolition for the new building.
