Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at the Abbey Grounds, Abbey Park, Leicester. The work took place on the 17th of March 2014 during the preliminary investigative works in advance of proposed restoration works to the eastern precinct wall. The work involved the excavation of a small trench and four boreholes in order to be able to formulate a suitable mitigation strategy to safeguard archaeological retains when the restoration work commences. No surviving structural archaeological features were observed but substantial layers containing demolition rubble were encountered, and may be as late as 1930s excavation spoil. The fieldwork was carried out by A.R.Hyam. The archive will be deposited with Leicester City Museums Service under Accession Number A7.2014
