The site measured 24m by 13.5m and was excavated to 1.3m below present street level. The stratigraphy consisted of infill material comprising a loose composition of red brick, metal, mortar, concrete, broken ceramic service-pipes, slate, shell and some animal bone, overlying natural, stony gravels. Three underpinning sections, 2.5m wide and 1.5m deep, from the basement floor under the adjacent west wall of the adjoining building contained identical infill deposits over natural gravel.
No evidence of any archaeological deposits or structures was revealed during excavation.
