This collection comprises site data (images, a site drawing, spreadsheets and site records) from an archaeological watching brief undertaken in July 2014 by Oxford Archaeology during the installation of a new damp proof membrane along the west range of the Radcliffe Quadrangle at University College, Oxford.

All fieldwork was undertaken in accordance with the requirements of the Oxford Archaeology Field Manual (ed. D Wilkinson 1992), and the revised Oxford Archaeology fieldwork manual (publication forthcoming). The work did not require planning consent and therefore no brief was issued by Oxford City Council and no written scheme of investigation (WSI) was prepared. The work was commissioned by Dr Roland Harris, the archaeological consultant for University College, and was undertaken in accordance with standard OA watching brief methodology.

The watching brief revealed the construction cut for the east wall of the cellar of the west range of the quad, which was constructed between 1675 and 1676. Additionally, a series of imported garden soils and landscaping deposits were revealed.
