Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out, in advance of the replacement of a water main at the site of The County Hospital, Hereford. The works were carried out in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) agreed by the archaeological advisor to Herefordshire County Council and entailed the monitoring of the excavation of two slot-trenches through a service road to the south of the Age Care/Rehabilitation Unit. The site lies within the Hereford Area of Archaeological Importance (AAI) and, in part, within the postulated extent of a burial ground associated with St Guthlacs Priory, which formerly occupied part of the hospital site. Each of the trenches was excavated to a maximum depth of 1.0m below ground level and the natural geology was not reached in either case. The earliest deposit encountered appeared to represent a former horticultural soil horizon, heavily truncated by numerous extant services. Whilst occasional small fragments of probable human bone were identified within this matrix within the southernmost trench, no articulated remains were identified. The small fragments were incorporated into the backfill of the trenches upon completion of the ground investigations. No further archaeological features of deposits were encountered during the course of the watching brief.
