Monitoring of groundworks was conducted in advance of construction of new disabled access facilities. Monitoring revealed the remains of a single pit, which produced a sherd of Early Christian pottery. The pit was sealed by a series of truncated 19th-century walls, but no clear structures could be identified.
Editor’s note: Although this licence was issued during 2004, the report on the work was not received in time for inclusion in the bulletin of that year.
