Located several metres to thw NE of the junctions between Styring Street and Middle Street, excavation of a drainage trench revealed a large pit. Only observable in section, the feature measured 1.46m across, and 0.77m deep, with a broad concave profile. Within the feature was a single deposit of mid greyish brown, sandy silt gravel. The pit was cut into the natural gravels, as was sealed by 0.5m of modern made ground and tarmac. No dating material was recovered from the feature, but it did contain a large quantity of animal bone.

Another pit was recorded at the eastern edge of the track bed excavation, near to the SE end of Styring Street. The full extent of the featue was not visible, as it extended beyond the limits of the development area, but the exposed portion was circular in shape, measuring approximately 1.5m in diameter. It was only visible to a depth of 0.52m, where machining had revealed it in section, although it was not investigated further, and so the full depth was not seen. Within the pit was a single deposit, comprising dark greyish brown, silty sand with charcoal and CBM fragments throughout. Based upon the brick fragments within this feature it appears to have been backfilled during the 20th century.

Whilst monitoring development works near to the centre of Strying Street, an elongated oval pit was observed. The feature measured 2m x 0.5m in plan, and excavation revealed steep near vertical sides, leading to a concave base 0.34m deep. Contained within the pit was a single deposit, of brownish grey, silty clay. Fragments of CBM noted within the fill of this feature (but not retained) would suggest that it was backfilled during the post medieval period.
