This L-shaped site measured 80m east-west by 42m north-south and lay outside the area of the medieval town and its suburbs.

Eighteenth-century cellars that lay beneath demolished buildings had been completely removed before assessment was undertaken. This left the surface of the site some 3.2m below street level.

Four long trenches were opened by mechanical excavator on 12 January 1995. No features of pre-18th-century date were uncovered.
