NT 25483 75294 A watching brief was undertaken 23 June 2010–16 March 2011 on a proposed development site. This work followed evaluation work undertaken in December 2009 (DES 2010, 70). During the watching brief the remains of the mapped mill lade were found in two areas. Five tanning pits of modern date were uncovered alongside several structural foundations, brick floor surfaces and walls. Two pits, thought to relate to 19th- to 20th-century industrial activity were also recorded.
