Abstract:		 September 2008, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out a field evaluation at Brewer Street, Oxford. The evaluation revealed deeply stratified clay rich deposits which may represent fills of the pre-conquest configuration of a branch of the Thames, subsequently known as the Trill Mill Stream. Overlying and also to the north of these possible fills were a series of deposits, which may correlate to the deliberate deposition of material along the interface between the Thames floodplain and the second gravel terrace to the north. A possible pit and a north-south aligned linear feature truncated these deposits in the south of the investigation area. The pit may relate to a tenement plot fronting on to Brewer Street. The linear possibly formed a drainage channel running from the town to the Trill Mill Stream. Overlying the fills of these two features were a series of imported garden soils, which are possibly contemporary with the construction of the existing buildings fronting on to Brewer Street in the 17th century. In the north of the investigation area the land reclamation deposits were truncated by a north-south aligned limestone wall, a similarly aligned ceramic drainage pipe, and a 20th-century brick built inspection pit. The date of the limestone wall was uncertain. However, to the north of the wall, a potentially contemporary compacted gravel surface, produced 14th-15th century roof tile. The wall also appeared to have been modified, possibly in the 19th century, by the addition of a chute, the function of which was unclear.
