Abstract:		 As the result of an archaeological condition on planning consent for the development of the site of the Gospel Hall, Orchard Road, Baldock, Herts., the Heritage Network was commissioned to create a record of the existing building and to undertake archaeological monitoring of the development groundworks. The former Gospel Hall is a typical example of a so-called 'Tin Tabernacle', originally built as a Mission Hall in the 1880s. It was extended with the addition of an entrance hall, kitchen and toilets in the latter part of the 20th century, although the original building survived largely unaltered. The structure consisted of a light wooden framework, formed of softwood uprights linked by battens on both the internal and external faces, and supporting wooden panelling on the interior, and corrugated iron on the exterior elevations and roof slopes. No specifically dateable elements were observed. The monitoring programme revealed two parallel linear features. The pottery sherds uncovered from the larger ditch, and the large quantity of animal bone, some pieces of which revealed butchery marks, suggests Romano-British domestic activity spanning a 200 year period in this area of Baldock, confirmed by similar findings from the nearby site at 2-24 Orchard Road, Baldock.
