Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A programme of archaeological attendance and recording (watching brief) was undertaken at St Peter's Church, Main Street, Tilton on the Hill, Leicestershire between the 1st and 8th of October 2018 by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS). The work took place in the churchyard during the installation of a new sewer pipe running along the north side of the church building down to Oakham Road. The Grade I listed church has elements dating to the 12th century with probable origins earlier than this date. Therefore a watching brief was requested in order to ensure that any archaeological remains that may be affected by the works were fully recorded. The pipe trench measured approximately 80m in length with an average width of between 0.5 and 0.6m. The excavated depth of the trench varied between 1.1m and nearly 2m. A narrow drystone wall built of locally sourced ironstone was identified running on a north to south alignment near to the north-western corner of the chancel wall. No dating evidence was associated with this feature which may represent an earlier churchyard boundary wall. A circular brick-built well-like structure was also observed which is likely to be a modern soakaway feature serving modern rainwater services. No evidence of any earlier phases of church buildings was observed during the work although some fragments of moulded stone were recovered.
