The site lies to the north of the Dam Banks South Sluice and bridge, west of Moor Road and between Papplewick Lane and Linby Lane. (2) Two test pits of one square metre were excavated. The first was on the terrace feature a few metres north-west of the East Sluice. The other was in the low-lying area between the assumed site of the north pond and the channels leading to the South Sluice. (2) The structures observed in the test pit on the terrace feature are consistent with an interpretation that the terrace was periodically flooded, (rather than containing flowing water that would have been more likely to deposit coarse-grained material), and for the context to represent the former land surface. (2) The structures in the second test pit are possible indications that this was the site of a channel linking a possible north pond to the bridging structure at the South Sluice. The stones may be remnants of a channel lining. Alternatively they may be remnants of a demolition phase, perhaps marking the site of a stone dump where useful material was stored and/ or sorted. The stones that were exposed were angular and showed no sign of being shaped to form parts of a wall. There was no mortar debris in the fill. (2)
