Monitoring was carried out in advance of a new warehouse. The development involved the digging of 32 foundation pads which averaged 2m by 1.3m. One of the pads revealed a modern linear cut into the natural subsoil, with a grey brown gravel acting as fill. The cut was parallel to the west bank of the River Kiltha, which flows 12m to the east, and is a modern attempt to consolidate the riverbank and prevent minor flooding.
No archaeological features or small finds were uncovered.
