Twenty test trenches were excavated in advance of redevelopment. In the vicinity of the original Portrane House, or Mount Evans, the basement of the demolished structure house was exposed. Cobbled yards, drains, and outbuildings associated with the demesne were also uncovered in the test trenches. Extensive trenching of fields and the former walled garden of the demesne did not uncover any archaeological material.
