Abstract:		 Two small test holes were archaeologically excavated during opening up works at Honing church. These aimed to establish whether any remains survived of the wider (than present) aisles which are known to have formerly existed, Some deposits relating to former floors were identified, and evidence for the demolition and removal of the aisles' walls was recorded. Investigation at the blocked door of the west tower showed that its former threshold was almost half a metre below that of the existing floor within the tower. Monitoring during subsequent drainage works led to the recording of other areas of 'robber trench', former floor deposits and demolition rubble. The work showed that the former floors corresponded approximately with the level of the tower doorway threshold. Six graves were identified within a trench dug for a new soakaway to the south-east of the church but only one skeleton was partly disturbed by the drainage work. In two other trenches for soakaways burials were not reached but the disturbed sols and presence of a few fragments of human bone showed that they existed at a greater depth. Human bone was reburied close to where it was found. Finds recovered from the site during the work include struck flints and a sherd of pottery of prehistoric date, sherds of pottery of Middle and Late Saxon date and part of a possible Saxon hone stone, medieval pottery, floor tile, worked building stone and window glass, and post-medieval brick, and window glass.
