Abstract:		 Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd (PCA) was appointed by the Parish of St. Matthew with St. Paul, Winchester, to carry out an archaeological evaluation, at St. Paul's Church Winchester, Hampshire, hereafter 'the site'. The site is the subject of proposed changes to access off St. Paul's Hill and to a separate proposal of the construction of new and additional parish rooms to the north of the church. The evaluation was designed in discussion with the LPA's Historic Environment Team Archaeologist (HETA) and reflected the potential of the Site to contain archaeological resources. This potential was highlighted by excavations to the north of the church carried out in 1972. The excavations uncovered significant evidence of the former medieval church, St. Anastasius, in the form of structural elements and burials. Evidence of the 19th century construction of the current church and general landscaping was also identified. The evaluation comprised the excavation of two evaluation trenches and three test pits. The evaluation trenches measured 10m X 1.8m (Trench 1) and 5m X 1.8m (Trench 2) and were located in the open area to the north-east of the church. The test pits were proposed to all measure 1.5m X 1.5m, however Test Pit 2 was extended in order to further investigate potential archaeological features. No significant in situ archaeological resources were identified during the course of the archaeological evaluation. The historic topography of the site, and therefore the true archaeological horizon, appears to have been hidden by the wide-ranging landscaping and construction that took place during the Victorian period. It is highly unlikely that significant archaeological resources remain to the east or south of the church, however owing to the varied changes in ground levels over the last 150 years it is possible that areas of greater archaeological survival could be present, such as was identified during the 1972 excavations to the north the church.
