They were located on two different levels and possibly formed part of two different buildings, now demolished or partially demolished . No significant archaeological finds or features were discovered during the works. The absence of archaeological features may be due to the intense continuing construction activity that has characterized Wellingborough, starting from the post medieval period onwards.
