Monitoring of works associated with public realm landscape upgrades to the existing Port Centre Precinct was carried out in 2016 and 2017. Reclamation deposits were identified beneath the tarmac and topsoil that was removed during the works. These varied in composition, which is not unusual as any fill material that could be obtained for reclamation was used. A cut stone surface was identified in one of the trenches, which is likely to relate to the former ship-building yard that was located to the south of the existing precinct structure. No features of archaeological significance were identified during the course of works.
