Abstract:		 During September and October 2010, a strip, map and sample excavation and subsequent watching brief were carried out on land at Roebuck Primary School, St Margaret's, Stevenage, Hertfordshire, following a programme of archaeological evaluation earlier in the year which uncovered a Bronze Age pit containing a large amount of pottery. A gully and two small, undated postholes were identified close to the eastern boundary of the site. Three small sherds of probable Bronze Age pottery were recovered from the gully, suggesting it is contemporary with the pit uncovered during the evaluation. Following analysis of the evaluation pottery, it was suggested that the pit may have had ritual significance and was likely to have been located close to a settlement. The lack of archaeological evidence observed across the western part of the site suggests that the settlement, should it exist, may be located to the east and south of the development, under the present school and car park.
