Watching Brief (1999)
NT53SW 82.01 centred on 5478 3430
NT 548 341 A watching brief was kept during the excavation of a trench to take a drain from a new residential development on Annay Road (DES 1998, 81) (see NT53SW 103) to a former mill lade on the N side of the abbey. Nothing of interest was uncovered within this trench which ran along Annay Road for 58m, although the rubble foundations of two walls were uncovered within a sewage trench, cut across the road at the N end of the site. It was not possible to determine the dates or functions of these walls.
