Abstract:		 Previous evaluation of the site had uncovered substantial medieval remains from St. Michael's priory. The watching brief identified medieval pottery that probably also originated from the nearby medieval cloister buildings. Post-medieval material possibly came from an unfound post-dissolution house or farm. The absence of structural remains of these periods may have been due to the location of the trenches on the steep slope of the school playing field, outside of the supposed western limit of the medieval priory and beyond the site of a later building. A continuous gas pipeline trench to the east of the school revealed a clearly defined boundary between undisturbed natural strata, with a low density of archaeological remains and concentrated archaeological deposits. The boundary possibly represented part of the southern limit of the monastic complex. A possible drain or wall orientated north-east south-west was found north of this boundary, probably associated with medieval buildings to the west of the gas pipe line. Previous ground disturbance probably destroyed some archaeological remains. [Au(abr)]
