Abstract:		 On the 23 January 2018 Alder Archaeology Ltd excavated three small archaeological evaluation pits (site code SA 62) on a narrow site at 16 Argyle Street St Andrews in advance of a housing development. The site was considered to have archaeological significance due to its location within the Argyle suburb, which had developed around the main western route into the town during the medieval period. The site is centred on NGR NO 50520 16517 and measures 31 X 7m, it had been cleared of a joinery workshop building. The site surfaces comprised a concrete floor on the S half and compacted dark sandy silt yard surface on the N half. The evaluation pits were located at both ends of the site and in the centre. Below the surfaces, the pits revealed the cuts and fills of modern services which had been laid into the natural orange brown sand. Nothing of archaeological significance was found. It was considered that any medieval archaeological deposits that may have existed on the site had been scarped away during the modern period. No further archaeological work was recommended.
