Abstract:		 In May 2017 Archaeological Research Services Ltd (ARS) was commissioned by Northumbrian Water Limited to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Church Street, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland. The archaeological watching brief monitored the replacement of a length of water pipe, inserted into an open-cut trench, which bisected the route of the central carriageway extending along Church Street. Due to the location of Church Street within the medieval core of Berwick-upon-Tweed all groundworks were subject to archaeological monitoring in order to mitigate against any potential damage caused to sub-surface archaeological remains situated within the development area. The watching brief revealed evidence for a probable 19th century cobbled road surface which had been re-instated following the subsequent insertion of multiple service trenches below the route of the Church Street thoroughfare. No finds or features of archaeological significance were identified during the course of the watching brief although it is worth noting that any pre-existing medieval or post-medieval deposits were likely heavily disturbed during the construction of subsequent road surfaces and the installation of the modern service trenches.
