On 6 November 1995 the cutting of an elevator shaft against the north side of the mill was monitored. A 2m depth was excavated, but failed to reach the base of a recent gravel deposit in a deliberate and extensive cut against the wall of the mill. The cut and infill is associated with the recently built shopping precinct.
