Description
This monument was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 08R117) and test excavation (Licence no. 09E 0465) as part of the proposed Metro North development.

- DU011-154 Structure
Description
This monument was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 08R117) and test excavation (licence no. 09E 0465) as part of the proposed Metro North development. It consists of a metalled surface (7.25m x 5.9m) associated with three U-shaped channels, postholes and pits. Although no diagnostic material was recovered the remains were interpreted on the basis of the morphology as a medieval structure (Fagan 2009, 23).
