6.3 <strong>Archaeological</strong> Potential<br />

It is considered unlikely that archaeological deposits, features or relics associated with The Grange house are<br />

extant. Images of The Grange indicate the house was constructed on a gentle slope. The slope has been cut and<br />

the site levelled and it is therefore highly likely that the house and associated features, were removed during<br />

these works. There is potential that remains of the structures formerly located on the Wilson Street frontage could<br />

be preserved under the footpath and/or road. There is also potential for archaeological deposits to be associated<br />

with the cistern as it would appear that this area has had only limited disturbance during its occupation by the<br />

Railway Yards.<br />
