Testing was undertaken at a site to the rear of West Street, Lismore, prior to a proposed residential development. The site is located within the zone of archaeological potential for the town of Lismore. Test-trenching took place on 18 June 2007, carried out using a JCB excavator with a flat toothless bucket. Two trenches were mechanically investigated across the test area of 84m2. Nothing of archaeological significance was discovered during testing.
