An archaeological impact assessment was carried out by Archaeological Development Services Ltd during August 1996 at Riverside in Sligo town, in advance of development. Two machine-dug trenches were excavated in the area where map evidence suggested that the projected line of the town’s medieval defences might exist.

Nothing of archaeological significance was noted.
