Abstract:		 Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited were commissioned by the Churches Conservation Trust to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Holy Trinity Church, Sunderland, Tyne and Wear (central National Grid Reference NZ 40594 57192). The archaeological work involved the monitoring and recording of a new drainage trench that extended around the southern and eastern perimeter of the church. Internally the work comprised the monitoring of a test pit located within the choir area, the excavation of the dais/chancel, and an area within the apse to assess the condition of the underlying burial vault. Five burials were encountered within the drainage trench as well as four additional vaults/burial slabs that were either within the trench section, so not excavated, or were not in situ. Other structural remains uncovered included walls that may have related to a former cemetery wall to the south of the church entrance and part of the demolished boiler house to the north of the apse. Internally the support foundations of the pulpit were uncovered. The condition of the burial vault below the apse that housed the remains of the former rectors was assessed during removal of the apse floorboards.
