The testing programme also aimed to identify the existence or extent of DG038-059--- (burnt spread), previously identified within a small, exposed section of the north riverbank.
No archaeological features, deposits or artefacts were found during the archaeological testing. No evidence or traces of any kind were observed in relation to burnt spread DG038-059---.
