Archaeological testing was carried out on 13 February 2023 using a mechanical excavator fitted with a flat grading bucket. This development is located in close proximity to the site of a bastioned fort (GA094-129001) and the trenches targeted open green space to fully investigate the archaeological potential of the site.
Testing revealed nothing of archaeological significance.
