Pre-development testing was a condition of the grant of planning permission as the development site is located close to a mound (SMR 3:15) and to St Mobhi’s Church (SMR 3:16).
The area of the planned development is small and the line of the foundation was tested in two places. Trench I exposed a brick floor and a brick wall which were probably associated with the eighteenth-century building to the north. Trench 2 revealed the remains of flagstones lying on top of boulder clay, which were probably also associated with the eighteenth-century building.
Nothing of archaeological interest was exposed.
