The work was undertaken for St. George's School as part of a research project to investigate the archaeology of the school grounds. The works involved the excavation of two 1m x 1m test pits by pupils of the school. Topsoil and a make-up deposit were excavated in both trenches, however, finds ranging in date from medieval to modern were recovered. In addition to the excavation, staff from the JORVIK Group led a number of educational activities and a geophysical survey and educational sessions were carried out by Magnitude Surveys.
