Abstract:		 In the winter of 2010-11 improvements to the church of St Peter and St Paul in the village of East Harling resulted in a programme of archaeological monitoring works during the excavation of several service trenches and a pit for the installation of a water tank within the graveyard to the west. A second stage of works which included the excavation of a test pit was carried out on the inside of the church when replacement of the floor within the northern aisle revealed archaeologically significant deposits. The excavation of the service trenches in the graveyard revealed little of interest beyond the presence of graveyard soils however the greater depth required for a water tank uncovered a possible charnel pit containing the long bones of numerous individuals. The internal alterations uncovered remnants of a possible wall footing on an east-west alignment with what may have been an associated floor surface to the north. Excavations to the south of these deposits revealed a soft ?post-medieval back fill material filling a large cut feature that probably extended across the length of the trench cutting graveyard soil to the north. At the base of this excavation a single grave was encountered containing a skeleton that (from its body position) appeared to have been buried in a shroud.
