A watching brief was maintained on 22 February 2010 during the excavation of trenches associated with the installation of a power supply to the parlour in the E range of Dryburgh Abbey. The deposits revealed inside the parlour indicated that the present floor is of 19th-century or later date. However, the original floor level may survive beneath the modern floor at a similar depth to the apparently medieval deposits recorded in the exterior trench.
