An archaeological watching brief was carried out to provide onsite archaeological services for a scheme on behalf on Doran Consulting and NI Water to investigate options for sewer upgrades along Foyle Street, Derry City, including boreholes and slit trenches. The monitoring took place between 20 and 22 March 2018. Two of the slit trenches were opened prior to an archaeological presence on site. Nothing of an archaeological was uncovered within the remaining 9 slit trenches opened along Foyle Street, Water Street, and the Foyle Embankment, Derry City.
