Abstract:		 In May 2018 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation ahead of proposed development at 26 Angel Hill, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk IP33 1UZ (NGR TL 855 642; Figs. 1-2). The evaluation was undertaken in advance of any planning consent for development (St Edmundsbury Council Planning Approval App. Ref. DC/18/0068), based on the advice of Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service (SCC AS-CT) (Abby Antrobus 23rd March 2018). It was carried out in accordance with a written scheme of investigation (specification) prepared by AS (dated 6th April 2018), and approved by SCC AS-CT The trial trench evaluation allowed a narrow but productive investigation into an area formerly containing monastic buildings and the outer precinct wall of the medieval Abbey of St Edmund. Wall M1018 lay in the position of the extrapolated outer precinct wall of the abbey and its 1.10m width conformed to the 1.05m wide precinct wall recorded elsewhere. The uppermost walls in the sequence appear to cut through 17th to 19th century pits. The lower walls cut through earlier pits and may provide evidence for activity pre-dating the Abbey precinct wall. A small quantity of medieval pottery, including local coarse wares and Grimston ware, was recovered from the earliest deposits. Medieval peg tile was found and also modest quantities of animal bone associated with food waste and skinning activities. Also notable were four blocks of dressed limestone that were likely part of an Abbey building. The later walls likely represent a single campaign of building in the 17th to 18th centuries, consistent with other buildings on Mustow Street. The medieval features were identified on the Abbey side of the wall, but a modern intrusion (the base of a hydraulic lift) was an obstacle to the evaluation.
