Monitoring of trenching for the foundations of a new shop development revealed only recent rubble deposits down to the base of the trenches. Towards the rear of the site this rubble bottomed out onto a grey clay which may be a buried topsoil. These lower deposits were not investigated further and will be sealed in under the new building.
Other work in this part of the town has revealed no features or deposits of archaeological significance and no finds of medieval date. It is therefore probable that the lower sealed deposits are of no major significance.
