An assessment of a proposed retail development was carried out in April 1999. The site is to the north of the medieval town on the site of an old gaol that dates to 1818.
Four trenches were excavated and revealed that the site consisted of made-up ground above boulder clay. There was no archaeological stratigraphy present, and the proposed development will not have an archaeological impact.
