From the report: "The great nineteenth-century artillery fortress occupying the summit of the Western Heights at Dover is of some considerable historical importance (e.g. Pattison et al. 2004) and is accordingly scheduled as an Ancient Monument (Monument No. 1020298). In late September 2014 telecommunications work was undertaken at various localities within the Scheduled Area. This was monitored by a member of the Canterbury Archaeological Trust but nothing of special archaeological significance was revealed. Details are set out below. The works included excavations for the repair of blockages in existing telecommunication ducts, trenching for new underground ducts, and the installation of surface mounted cables on the bridge and Victorian gatehouse of the Citadel. These operations provided some limited opportunity for further archaeological investigation of the below-ground archaeology of the Western Heights complex, supplementing the more extensive observations made in the area during water-pipe trenching in 2007–8 (Parfitt 2009). In 2014, limited excavations were observed at four separate localities; one adjacent to the medieval chapel of the Knights Templar (Site 1) and three in the general area of the Citadel (Sites 2–4). In detail, the sites were: SITE 1 – Junction of Western Close and Citadel Road, adjacent to the medieval chapel SITE 2 – Outside Visitor Centre, in front of Citadel main gate SITE 3 – In road, junction of Citadel Heights and Citadel Road SITE 4 – On summit of outer rampart of Citadel, south-east of main gatehouse"
