Monitoring of the demolition and replacement of outbuildings. In the area of the porch two wells were exposed, the inner dimensions of these were 1.6m (eastern) and 2.2m (western). Both were built of machine made bricks and probably 19th century in date. Natural clay was at c. 0.4m. The footprint of the music room was examined and the ground was scraped to natural silt/clay. The site had been levelled before the previous construction and there were shallow features containing clay, fired clay and slag. Occasional glass and pottery was dated to the 19th century. Groundworks for services associated with the garden room did not reveal any archaeological features or finds.
