Abstract:		 The intrusive groundworks were split over two areas, termed Phases 1 and 2. These entailed the removal of surface concrete slab c.300 mm depth, breaking out existing pile caps to 1.5 m depth and removal of any encountered obstructions/structures below ground up to a maximum depth of 2 m. The watching brief monitored all mechanical excavations that occurred along the southern edge of the site and across the footprint of the former Methodist Chapel. There was a poor survival of archaeological remains at the site of Animate Preston. The demolition of previous buildings to make way for the construction of the late 20th-century indoor market and carpark was substantial and complete, largely removing any evidence of previous activity. This is correlates well with the conclusions formed by the desk-based assessment (Waterman IE 2021). The only surviving remains were in the north-west corner of the site and were evidence of a substantial building. The remains comprised walls constructed from white glazed and red, potentially re-used, bricks as well as vinyl and concrete flooring. The size and location of the building would suggest it is most likely to be the Majestic Hall, thought to have been built in the early 20th century.
