A pre-development archaeological assessment was carried out at No. 11 Stephen Street, Sligo, on 28 October 1997. The site is close to but east of several properties previously tested by the writer which lie within that area of the town, on the northern side of the River Garvoge, which underwent expansion in the 18th century.
A trench roughly 39m long north–south x 2m wide east–west was excavated along the western side of the proposed development area. Nothing of archaeological significance was uncovered during the investigation and all deposits and artefacts appear to date from the 18th–20th century.
