Abstract:		 As part of a construction scheme at Repton School, Derbyshire, a teaching block was demolished in order to clear ground space for the erection of a new building. After the demolition, a series of test pits and service trenches were excavated ahead of the measured ground reduction of the main footprint area. All excavation works considered to be intrusive required monitoring by an archaeologist as a consequence of the new development being located in the archaeologically significant historic core. The structural remains and a single discrete feature were identified in Service Trench C and the open area but did not provide any secure dating evidence. Beyond the clear evidence that they predate the post medieval period, little more can be inferred with confidence. However, the relatively large size of the walls is compelling and analogous Saxon and medieval structural remains in the immediate vicinity indicate a 7th to 15th century construction. The noticeable absence of material culture from within the cut of the wall foundation wall does not imply a domestic use. The structure may have had an agricultural use although a firm interpretation is difficult to establish on account of the small exploratory trench.
