In October, December 2001 and January 2002 Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological watching brief at St Peter and St Paul's Church, Buckingham, Buckinghamshire (NGR SP 6946 3375). The work was commissioned by Basil Wyatt & Son Ltd in advance of internal renovations in the west end of the church and the excavation of a service trench located on the south side of the church. The watching brief revealed that the church was built onto the ground make up of the castle mound and that the site had been cleared and levelled prior to its construction.
