Abstract:		 John Moore Heritage Services undertook an archaeological evaluation in advance of new planning proposals on land at Mayott House, Ock Street, Abingdon, Oxfordshire (centred SP49229692). Two trenches were excavated to the underlying natural geology or surface of medieval archaeology. The archaeological evaluation revealed a series of medieval rubbish pits and ditches cut into the natural clay and in some instances cut into a subsoil, within both trenches. The pits and possible ditches contained medieval refuse dated to the 13th century with some earlier residual pottery sherds from the 10th and 11th centuries AD. The site has proved early medieval habitation towards the western end of Ock Street which did not continue after the early 14th century AD. Following the medieval occupation, a thick post-medieval soil accumulation indicates the site being used as a garden or orchard. The site was then re-occupied in the 19th century with a Victorian street, the remains of one building was recorded in Trench 1, which is not on the 2nd edition OS map, but is assumed to be associated with the re-development of Ock Street and was probably a small workshop or outbuilding. The site was then redeveloped again during the 1970's with the construction of the present care home.
