Abstract:		 Oxford Archaeology (OA) was commissioned by R Blue Regen Ox Ltd on behalf of Reef Group to excavate ten geotechnical test pits using archaeological evaluation methods and monitor and log three boreholes at the former Boswells Department Store, 1-4 Broad St, Oxford (site centre SP 5129 0640). The works are linked to a redevelopment of the site, Oxford City Council Planning Ref: 20/02480/FUL. The work clearly demonstrated that significant archaeological deposits relating to successive phases of defensive ditch, probably Anglo-Saxon and certainly Medieval and their sequences of infilling during the medieval and Tudor periods, as well as later occupation encroachment in the 17th/18th centuries survive within the site despite the existence of extensive basements. Both ditches appear to have a similar, size and form c 27m wide and c 5m deep - neither appeared to reach the Oxford Clay bedrock.
