A watching brief was carried out in the area of the “Old Smithy”, beside the road tunnel, while ground-works to allow the laying of a slabbed surface were carried out. The work took place on weekdays between the 5th and 12th October, 1999. As it became apparent that a significant amount of the work would involve removal of concrete, and that there was little of archaeological significance appearing, it was decided to conduct this watching brief via morning visits.
