A programme of archaeological works was required by Link Group in support of residential development work at the former Ravenscraig Hospital site, Greenock. The works were designed to provide guidance on whether further archaeological works would be required to mitigate the impact on any archaeological remains within the development area.

No significant archaeological remains were uncovered. Various made ground deposits were found across the site which appeared to relate to extensive landscaping during the site’s use in the late 19th century and throughout the 20th century.
