Watching brief by N Cowlard of EEHAS during development where much of the groundworks proposed had already been completed did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by N Cowlard and F Pemberton of EEHAS revealed no evidence of Stane Street or any other finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Perry of SutAS revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Langthorne, and a watching brief during geotechnical works by K Bower, both of PCA, revealed evidence of extensive past truncation and no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Robertson of SCAU did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by N Cowlard of EEHAS in an area where the precise location of Stane Street was not known revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest. A subsequent excavation of four test pits by EEHAS and SyAS along the eastern property boundary did not reveal any evidence of the road or roadside features, but the lack of subsoil in three of the trenches (and its presence in the fourth trench only at a greater depth) suggests that the site had been scraped in the past.

Evaluation by J Langthorne, and a watching brief during geotechnical works by K Bower, both of PCA, revealed a gully, two small pits and one possible feature. Sherds of pottery found in one of the pits and the gully, dating from the 13th–16th centuries, suggest the features are medieval in date.

Evaluation by J Langthorne, and a watching brief during geotechnical works by K Bower, both of PCA, revealed a pit of unknown, but probable post-medieval/modern, date and evidence of extensive truncation.

Evaluation by J Robertson of SCAU revealed extensive modern disturbance, residual medieval pottery and fragments of burnt flint of possible prehistoric date, but no features of archaeological interest.
