Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out in the garden of Friars (formerly Friars Farm), Tindon End, Wimbish in advance of the construction of a swimming pool and pool house. East-west aligned trench 1 was located in the footprint of the pool house and north-south aligned trench 2 in the footprint of the pool. Trench 1 measured 6m by 1.6m by 0.6m deep. The 0.24m overburden comprised a layer of dark grey clayey-silt topsoil, overlaying 0.36m of light yellowish-brown silty-clay subsoil that in turn sealed natural deposits, which consisted of light yellowish-brown and light grey clay silt with frequent flecks of chalk. The sequence of the deposits in trench 2, measuring 10m by 1.6m by 0.6m deep, was the same as in trench 1, with minor differences in the thickness of the layers in the shallower, northern part of the trench. The north end of trench 2 revealed an east-west aligned modern wall, buried just under the turf. It measured 0.35m wide by 0.4m deep, was made of pierced bricks and had a concrete foundation. Approximately 0.6m further south was an east-west aligned ditch 1. It measured 2m wide by 0.67m deep, had steep sides and a flattish base. Fragments of medieval or most likely post-medieval tiles were recovered from its single, dark brownish-grey sandy-clay fill. No other archaeological remains were identified.
