Abstract:		 In 2014, Oxford Archaeology carried out a field evaluation at the President's Garden, St John's College, St Giles, Oxford in advance of the proposed expansion of the Colleges library facilities. The evaluation consisted of three trenches and revealed that the site's natural horizon, and original ground level, had been heavily truncated by later activity. There was a lack of pre-medieval fills. There was evidence for medieval activity from as early as late 12th century, with the majority of medieval finds dated to t c.1250 - 1500. Pits of varying sizes were found, the smaller ones of a domestic nature, and the larger indicating quarrying for sands and gravels from potentially. The domestic pits his suggest that the later tenement boundaries shown on late 16th-century maps may have been further to the east The formalisation of the ditched boundary by the construction of a stone wall called 'Sprott Wall' perhaps post-dates earlier late 16th-century quarrying.
