Abstract:		 Archaeological trial trenching undertaken in January 2011. The work was occasioned by the proposed construction of a new building measuring 880m2 in area. The Phase 2a site is located approximately half way along the north side of Vicarage Street and forms part of a wider redevelopment of the University of Bedfordshire's Park Square Campus in Luton. The site is located within the former medieval core of Luton, close to the 12th-century parish Church of St Mary, and within the moated enclosure of the 13th-century castle of Fulk de Breaute. The presence of the castle was confirmed in 2009 during archaeological investigations associated with the Phase 1b development of the University's Park Square Campus. The archaeological potential of the current development was evaluated by two trenches. Trench 1 revealed three ditches, six post-holes and a pit of medieval date. A buried medieval former topsoil below a burnt layer of uncertain date were also identified in the trench below 0.6m of modern deposits. Trench 2 contained one post-hole and the same buried medieval topsoil below 1.20m of modern deposits.
