Abstract:		 The Recorder's House dates to the mid-15th century and is located within the historic centre of Thaxted. Archaeological monitoring was carried out on land to the rear of the house during the construction of a new garage and workshop. The new building footprint was rectangular in plan and measured 10m by 5.5m. Monitoring was undertaken on the excavation of a 0.6m wide and 1.1m deep foundation trench around the periphery of the footprint. Two archaeological features of probable modern date were identified. One was a large pit that appeared to extend beneath the present day property boundary at the east of the site, and the other a steep-sided service trench. No remains dating to the medieval period were identified, nor any specifically associated with cutlery production. Residual sherds of late medieval and post-medieval pottery were recovered but are not unexpected finds in the garden of a 15th-century town house.
