Trial trenching was carried out over a small area of the site in advance of housing development there. The intermin report records a series of redeposited natural layers of probable 13th-15th century date, likely to represent upcast from the digging of the moat, as well as deposits of dumped domestic refuse (including pottery sherds) of similar date and a possible surface of medieval or later date. No obvious structural remains were encountered. {5}
