NS 400 744 Archaeological monitoring was undertaken in March 2004 during the excavation of foundation pads for a andrail by the flight of stairs near the Governor's House, with a light gravel path overing the areas at the top and bottom of the steps. There were no finds of archaeological significance.

The need to erect scaffolding over the Inner Gateway and drawbridge required monitoring of clearance of turf and topsoil over bedrock on he E side of the gate. Nothing of archaeological interest was revealed.
