Evaluation of this site on the south edge of the historic core of Newport was undertaken in advance of residential development. Fifteen of the 42 trenches were found to contain archaeological remains. The evaluation revealed a low density of prehistoric, medieval and post-medieval remains. These consisted of ditches, gullies, pits, postholes and a possible pond concentrated in the north, west and south-west of the site.
