A watching brief was carried out by SUAT on contractor's trenches associated with the construction of stairways to the upper floors of 11-17 Skinnergate. Mainly negative evidence was revealed. Below a modern concrete yard surface were bedding layers containing ash, slag and fragments of 19th-century glass and pottery. Part of a stone wall was also revealed, directly below the concrete yard.
