Abstract:		 On Tuesday 24th January archaeological monitoring work was undertaken at the Village Hall in Swineshead, Bedfordshire in advance of the planned extension to the rear of the building. An area of approximately 14 square metres was excavated down to the interface between the subsoil layers and natural, but no archaeological features were found. However, two sherds of 12th-13th and 13th-15th century AD pottery were recovered from the upper subsoil layer, significant in that these are one of the very few bits of material evidence for Medieval settlement in the area of the High Street. At the base of the sub-soil some truncated fragments of a palaeosol appear to have survived which contains traces of strewn and perhaps redeposited burnt stone and charcoal, perhaps an indication of still earlier settlement.
