Abstract:		 The site lies some 150 meters to the north-east of the known location of Barking Abbey. Excavation revealed a Late Saxon phase characterised by pitting and a proposed well which may be associated with the Saxon phase of the Abbey. There is a clear intensification of archaeological activity moving into the medieval period, with the recovery of several features, including more pits as well as the remains of a chalk wall and a flint-lined storage pit/basement. It is conjectured that this 'structure' may be part of the western periphery of the old medieval town with the eastern precinct wall running parallel and to the west of North Street. The post-medieval period, following the Dissolution of the Abbey, is marked by a series of large quarry pits. These were overlain, in the centre of this large site, by brick walls, which could be associated with the Workhouse known to have existed on this site between 1722 and 1841. The last phase of activity dates to the modern era and other than providing evidence for a World War II shelter produced little of consequence.
