Abstract:		 Rescue excavations south of the River Great Ouse within the late Saxon Kings Ditch produced no definitely pre-Conquest occupation evidence. Early mediaeval pits with pottery mainly in the St Neots tradition were found up to the present frontages of St John's and Cauldwell Streets. These were sealed by post mediaeval structures including an 18th century cellar and a cottage with a back-to-back hearth. Further away from St John's Street was an early 18th century pit containing an important pottery group. Finds of shell-filled early mediaeval chimney pot sherds, and a tile with relief decoration are both discussed in relation to other known finds. Clay pipes and animal bones are fully reported. The evidence for late Saxon urban development in Bedford is discussed.
