This work was recommended by the State Historic Preservation Officer in response to a previous reconnaissance level investigation which identified two small eroding shell middens (38CH1514 and 38CH1515). No additional work was conducted on the James Island siege line or area of Battery 5 (identified as 38CH507) since the State Historic Preservation Office has determined that the site is eligible for inclusion on the National Register and no further work was requested. This intensive study, exploring the area between the siege line and the marsh frontage, failed to identify any new archaeological remains.
