Abstract:		 A trial trench evaluation and documentary history search was carried out at the above site in advance of the construction of new retail units and remodelling of some existing buildings. A single trench (30m2) was excavated in the open yard area, covering approx 6% of the space. The deposits proved to be deep and as a result full access to the trenches was not possible due to health and safety considerations. A substantial depth of 'urban occupation deposit' was encountered at quite shallow depths beneath the extant surface. A small quantity of finds indicated that this represented activity of 11th to 14th century date. Incised features of ostensibly similar date were observed beneath the occupation deposit cutting the underlying natural drift geology, although the depth of the trenches meant that these could not be fully excavated. No Saxon dated material was recovered and the documentary/cartographic search suggests that the site lay outside the Anglo-Saxon core of the town and became part of a medieval expansion. Further monitoring of construction operations was recommended.
