An evaluation prior to redevelopment of the Town Yard site was undertaken by Canterbury Archaeological Trust. The evaluation revealed a number of features once associated with the railway station which was situated at this site, one of which included a recently demolished, brick built, barrel vaulted sewer, this runs parallel at 2.3m south of a wall footing which relates to a large railway shed or terminus building. The original internal diameter of this sewer would have been approximately 0.9m. Two smaller brick barrel vaulted drains, located in Trench 3 and Trench 4 probably joined this sewer at right angles and together fairly certainly formed part of the drainage complex associated with the original railway station.
