Watching brief; evaluation NT 246 727 Due to the proximity of the Union Canal (NT27SW 39 and 83), a Scheduled Ancient Monument, a watching brief was carried out between August and October 2005 during the demolition of buildings and associated groundbreaking works on the Lochrin Place development site. Part of the walls of the basin and the S side of the basin bridge were recorded.
An evaluation was subsequently carried out. Sections of the walls of the basin were exposed, as well as sections of walls of other buildings contemporary with the basin. A large number of ceramic fragments were recovered from the bottom fill of the basin.
