A line of upright timbers set along the River Nene and into a infilled palaeochannel containing 13th century artefacts were identified. The timbers may have formed a protective structure for a bridgehead or a wharf. The timbers were sealed by 15th century deposits.

These consisted of several ditches, post holes and four pits spanning from at least the early Saxon period to the medieval period. Three post holes and a later contained early Saxon pottery. One narrow ditch may also belong to this period or slightly later. One pit and a ditch contained early medieval wares though the ditch also contained early Saxon sherds. Two further ditches, a ditch terminal and two gullies contained no dating evidence. The possible remains of an earthwork observed in trench two may also be relatively dated to pre or early Saxon. Some 19th-20th century disturbance occured in the form of a couple of pits, post holes and possible gravel quarrying.

The test pits identified that most of the site, apart from a small area in the southern end of the site, had been quarried away. In one of the quarried areas the remains of a brick structure was identified. The test pits in the un-quarried areas found no archaeology but identified that archaeology in the un-quarried areas, identified in the earlier evaluation, would survive.
