Monitoring of the proposed housing development at Lealand Road took place on 13–15 August and from 27 November to 7 December 2001. The development site is located to the east of Lealand Road. The site comprised three former green areas within a mature housing estate.
The exposed material proved to be buried builders’ rubble that had been used as backfill on an area of uneven and disturbed ground associated with the construction of the surrounding mature (c. 25 years) housing estate.

Monitoring of the topsoil-stripping and the excavation of the foundation trenches failed to produce anything of archaeological significance.
