Known sites monitored included a World War Two Prisoner of War camp (NHER 27793), World War Two defences, sea defence banks (including NHER 24485 and 27186), medieval/post medieval wall (NHER 39689) and a post medieval windmill mound (NHER 39768).
New sites recorded included banks, ditches, drainage features, mounds (possibly associated with saltworking), building material and a spigot mortar emplacement.
