Abstract:		 The programme of archaeological observation at No 38 South Street Leominster revealed a series of walls, drains and other features of probable 19th century date. A small quantity of residual medieval pottery was found in addition to a large amount of animal bone, wood fragments and post-medieval brick, glass and pottery. The topsoil strip undertaken within the courtyard to the rear of the property revealed evidence of a red brick boundary wall of 19th century date running east to west along the northern boundary of the site. This boundary wall marked the northerly limit of the property but may preserve the line of an earlier, possibly medieval burgage plot, as shown on William Gallier's Map of 1832. The most significant result of the archaeological observation was the discovery of a wall representing the remains of a narrow rectangular structure attached to the west end of the main house. Adjacent to this wall was an arched doorway that gave access to what appeared to be a cellar. Safety considerations prevented entry to and full investigation of the cellar itself but it appeared to extend to the north of the existing building and there was no evident link between it and the cellarage beneath the main house. The building represented by the wall and cellar appears to postdate construction of the main house (built c.1835-40) but to predate the erection of the existing two-storey west extension, which is known from documentary records to have been built in or shortly before 1876.
