A site survey was undertaken of the De Hahn, located at the base and extending under the current Alexandra Wharf in Lerwick Harbour. Two yellow sandstone bricks with a length of 17 cm, a width of 7.3 cm and a height of 3.5 cm were recovered and passed onto the Lerwick Museum. These were compared to previous bricks that were recovered from De Hahn, now located in the Shetland Museum Archive and confirmed to be of the same type. The location was recorded as 60°9'26.49"N; 1° 8'38.04"W, which was directly opposite the compartments 29-32 of the fish market.
