Two trial trenches were excavated at the site of a proposed extension to the rear of Main Street, Cong. The remains of a wall were found at a depth of 0.35m to the south of the site. The wall was orientated north-east/south-west and was not perpendicular to the extant building. It measured 3.6m in length and was excavated for a width of 0.82m. It was one course thick and did not have any bonding material evident. It was not possible to date it but it may predate the vernacular house to the front.
