Abstract:		 The watching brief monitored the mechanical excavation of foundation trenches for a new residential building being constructed on the site. The earliest deposits recorded were natural sands and gravels, observed at broadly the same level across the site. No brickearth nor natural subsoil was present and the Terrace Gravels were directly overlain by made ground of varying thickness and composition, which appears to have been deposited during the 20th century, though contained residual material of earlier date. The stratigraphic sequence was capped by a sheet of flexible anti-root membrane overlain by a thin layer of crushed stone, which acted as a bedding layer for a concrete slab that had been removed prior to the archaeological investigation and had previously acted as the surface for a car park previously occupying the site. No features or deposits of archaeological interest were present though residual finds within recent made ground indicated previous activity in the area, probably associated with a large building that lay immediately south of the site until the early 20th century. The site had not been structurally developed since that building was demolished and replaced with the current buildings on the north side of Church Street
