Abstract:		 A trench measuring approximately 60m in length, 450 mm in depth and 450mm in width was excavated though the site, and this was monitored by the attendant archaeologist as a watching brief. The works were undertaken by the client, Skanska Construction UK Ltd, to install a new power supply from a substation in the grounds of Marlborough House and finishing at 67 Pall Mall. In three locations the trench was deep enough to uncover the top of features of potential interest. Some possible but very limited evidence was seen of St James' Palace as it existed before the fire of 1809, and the subsequent creation of Marlborough Road during the years 1856 to 1857. These consisted of a stone foundation, a northeast-southwest orientated wall and a vaulted conduit, most likely a drain. However the new cable run trench did not impact upon any buried remains, stopping only at the surface of them.
