Abstract:		 Excavations were undertaken by Wessex Archaeology on a block of land at 42-44 Salt Lane on the south side of the street in advance of redevelopment by Bargate Homes for residential use. A preliminary watching brief, undertaken during site clearance, demonstrated that the deposits at the west end of the Site were undisturbed but that, to the east, all archaeological deposits had been removed by a Victorian cellar. The results of the excavation suggested that throughout the medieval period, following a phase during which the area was exploited for 'brick earth', plots are likely to have remained largely undeveloped. Land use was primarily cultivated ground or yards divided by simple tenement boundaries. Structural development of the area, within the Griffin Chequer of medieval Salisbury, appears to have commenced in the 15th-16th centuries when a building was erected along the current street frontage, possibly with the gable to the street. This building was furnished with a pitched tile hearth. Alterations were undertaken on the same tenement divisions in the 16th-17th centuries when buildings constructed with brick and flint foundations were erected. Major redevelopment appears to have taken place along much of the south side of Salt Lane in the 19th century. Buildings, many of which remain extant, were erected both on and to the south of the Site. This work is likely to involved significant alterations to the medieval tenement boundaries. It is proposed that, following a limited programme of analysis, the results of the excavations at 42- 44 Salt Lane should be published (probably as an article in the county journal) along with those from the more extensive investigations undertaken in 2013 between Bedwin Street and Salt Lane in the Vanners Chequer to the north.
