Phase 3 of the Adamstown District Centre occupies a rectangular area, formerly part of a large field of rough pasture. The site is bordered by ongoing construction to the east associated with Phase 2 and to the west associated with Phase 1 of the same development.

A programme of archaeological monitoring was carried out for construction phase groundworks between October and December 2023. This confirmed that the site had been heavily disturbed in the past, appearing to have been used as a storage area for construction waste. Nothing of archaeological potential was identified during the course of monitoring, consequently, no further mitigation measures are deemed necessary.
