A watching brief was maintained on 23 November 2009 during the location and exposure of a blocked waste water pipe. A small trench was excavated along the route of the pipe to the W of the N transept. The area consisted of made-up ground and the deposits were thought to relate to 18th-century improvements to the
church. Some disarticulated human bone was recovered and subsequently reburied on site.
