Abstract:		 On 20th November 2012 Foundations Archaeology undertook archaeological monitoring during the excavation of trial pits in advance of the re-use of existing buildings at 107 St Aldates, Oxford. A total of three hand-dug trial pits were excavated internally and externally at the southern range of the buildings of 107 St Aldates. No contexts clearly pre-dating the late Post-medieval period were present within the excavated areas, although artefactual material, with the exception of fragments of CBM, slate and clinker, was rare from earlier layers. If Medieval deposits do survive on the site, it is likely they are buried at a greater depth. The greatest depth excavated to was within TP2, at 1m below the existing ground level, and china wares were recovered from contexts at this depth. Layers that probably pre-dated the buildings were present only within layer (106) in TP1 and no dating evidence was recovered from this layer; this was the only trial pit in which the base of the wall foundations was observed. It was not possible to ascertain the origin of the lower layers due to the limited area of each deposit exposed. A possible surface comprising brick and limestone fragments was present in TP2; the top of which was present at 0.4m below the current ground level. The origin of this feature was not possible to ascertain. The trial pits exposed the foundations of the 19th century buildings, which comprised stone footings with yellow sandy mortar. The full depth of the footings was not revealed within TPs 2 and 3, although the footing in TP2 was substantial and measured at least 1m in depth.
