Abstract:		 Two trenches were excavated at strategic points within the development area. Trench one was located to the south of the site close to the hypothesised location of a Roman road. Eleven contexts were recorded. These consisted of three modern layers associated with the modern car park, above a 1.2m thick deposit of medieval and post-medieval garden soil sealing deposits of Roman archaeology. The archaeology consisted of layers of demolition material over a rammed chalk floor, which sealed a dark organic rubbish deposit. 0.15m into this lower deposit the water table was encountered and the excavation was halted. Trench two was located at the northeast corner of the site close to the hypothesised location of a ditch, thought to enclose the Iron Age settlement of Orams Arbour. A layer of orange clay and gravel was encountered. As soon as this layer had been uncovered the lower 0.2m of the trench filled up with water. Archaeological deposits above the waterline consisted of three deposits of modern material, relating to the car park, two post-medieval layers and a 1.4m thick deposit of medieval and post-medieval garden soil similar to that seen in Trench one.
