Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Unit 1 (formerly Knaresborough's National School for Boys), Castle Precinct, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire during the excavation of 30 underpinning foundation trenches. This work has formed the third and final watching brief report on the building's stabilisation work. The work was commissioned by Martinhal LLP to satisfy a condition placed on Scheduled Monument Consent by English Heritage. Previous archaeological watching briefs have consisted of: the excavation of 2 trial trenches (CS Archaeology, 2008) which did not reach natural bedrock, and 8 boreholes (CS Archaeology, 2009). The boreholes were positive for bedrock and this work has revealed the possible extent and depth of Knaresborough Castle's moat. Following the excavation of the 30 trenches no deposits were revealed that pre-dated the former school's construction. The trenches revealed a series of limestone supporting walls and an under floor heating system which both date to the buildings construction c. 1814.
