Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was conducted within the chancel of St. Helen's Church, Trowell, Nottinghamshire (SK48381 39747) on the lowering of the current chancel floor to the depth within the nave. The work was necessitated by an archaeological listed buildings planning constraint. There is thought to have been a church on land in this area since 801AD, and remains of the earlier Saxon church or 12th century successor may be visible within the current building footprint. The floor of the chancel had been raised during late 19th century renovations for the placement of underfloor heating ducts along the North and South walls. These were removed during the current phase of work. A possible early foundation wall and a brick burial vault were observed during the levelling of the chancel floor, though neither produced dating evidence. Nearby name plaques suggest that the brick burial vault likely belongs to the Evans family, dating to the mid-late 18th century. Neither burial vault, nor foundation wall were fully excavated, as the development did not damage the features and preservation in-situ was maintained.
