Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation was carried out in the Lodge Garden at The Great Hospital, Norwich, Norfolk. The excavation examined an area lowered for a new path within a garden to the south of St Helen's church in the hospital complex. The project was commissioned by Reynolds Jury Architecture on behalf of their client The Great Hospital. Little of archaeological note was revealed during the course of the excavation. The most significant remains were those of a foundation or threshold for a medieval porch at the east of the site, though little of this structure was exposed. A spread of building rubble at the west of the site close to the Derlyngton Tower might have resulted from the destruction of the south isle of the Infirmary Hall in the 16th century. An east-west aligned wall at the east end of the excavation is thought to be of late post-medieval date, and likely to be part of a toilet block constructed against the south precinct wall of the Hospital. Following the severe floods of 1912 that affected much of Norwich it appears that levels within the garden were raised, and it is these 20th-century deposits that seem to have formed the bulk of remains revealed by the excavation. Cutting these soils were drains and modern services overlain by the slabs and bedding material for the path. This report presents a summary of the excavation findings.
