Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Archaeological investigations undertaken at the Old Bishop’s Palace, the former see palace of the bishops of Ely, have uncovered several elements associated with the medieval episcopal complex. Of particular note is a large late thirteenth or early fourteenth-century masonry building. Situated at the rear of the palace precinct, on the edge of a large depression that was primarily formed via quarrying, this structure was flanked by a malting kiln and probably functioned as a brewhouse. In addition, dumped into the depression itself on an episodic basis were a series of fifteenth to early sixteenth-century kitchen waste deposits that contained a wide range of fauna, including numerous species of birds and fish. This latter material provides important evidence of conspicuous consumption in a late medieval episcopal household.
