Abstract:		 The archaeological excavation in advance of the construction of two escalator pits was undertaken. The excavation revealed the extremely well preserved remains of the Roman Legionary Fortress wall standing to just beneath the concrete floor of the store in one of the trenches and evidence for the survival of deposits from the Roman to the medieval periods. Occupation on the Feasegate street frontage was demonstrated together with the persistence of the fortress wall as a landscape feature well into the medieval period. A watching brief on a third escalator pit, nearer the Coney Street entrance to the store demonstrated that medieval deposits had been truncated when the store was built in the 1950's. [Au]
