Abstract:		 Planning permission was granted by Bedford Borough Council for the erection of two new classroom blocks, following the removal of a temporary classroom unit, at Harrold Lower School, The Green, Harrold, Bedfordshire. The Council's Historic Environment Team (HET) issued a brief outlining their requirement for a programme for archaeological observation, investigation and recording during the groundworks with (HET 2014). Albion Archaeology was commissioned by Kier Construction to carry out the archaeological works. The machine excavation of foundation pits within the areas for the two new classroom blocks were subject to archaeological monitoring during groundworks. No archaeological features were identified and no artefacts were recovered. In the area of the western classroom block undisturbed geological deposits were uncovered in all trenches. The geological deposit was found at a depth of between 0.65m and 1m below the ground surface. Above the geology the deposits consisted of buried topsoil below made-ground consisting of re-deposited geological material probable derived from construction elsewhere on the site. The area covered by the eastern classroom had been subject to significant disturbance during the 20th century. This area contained a deep, brick-lined cistern and a large concrete slab, edged along its southern side by a brick wall.
