Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of footings and construction of a wall related to the residential development of the site and was undertaken in order to fulfil a condition upon planning permission. An earlier evaluation had identified a inhumation burial which was then fully excavated during post-determination investigations. A Roman ditch, orientated north-west/south-east which had been revealed during the evaluation was traced for almost 20m during the excavation of the Eastern Range footings. Three further possible Roman ditches on alignments perpendicular to this ditch and oval pits, possibly Roman, adjacent to these were also revealed. Three brick wells contemporary with the recently demolished early 20th century houses and a post-medieval pit and post hole were identified. A large number of undated features, including eleven pits and a circular cut were identified. No archaeological features were identified during the construction of the south boundary wall. The excavations within the area of the north extension of the Chapel revealed two brick walls, an undated sub rectangular feature, two possible post holes relating tothe construction of the chapel and the continuation of two shallow cuts recorded in the evaluation [Au(adp)]
