Abstract: Foundation trenching totalling 10.3m in length, 0.5m wide and 1.3m deep was excavated to accommodate the new extension. Further trenching was subsequently excavated for the new decking area. It was 20m long, 0.5m wide and 0.75m deep. Archaeological monitoring was carried out at St Mary's Upper School, 91 Lexden Road, Colchester, Essex during groundworks for a new extension and a new decking area. The site lies within a known area of Late Iron Age and Roman burial grounds. Despite being located in an archaeologically-sensitive area, however, only a modern pit was recorded.
