Fairfield house has recently been demolished in order to redevelope the site to form part of the wider Millbrook Village development scheme. The construction of Fairfield House had a less damamging impact upon the underlying archaeology that had originally been anticipated; the building having been constructed in top of a consideralbe amount of imported fill material associated with the constuction of Fairfield House, which was up to 2m thick along the building's south-west frontage.

Exposed features comprised a late Iron Age ditch, four timber Roman militiary buildings. As well as a small number of pits and posthjoles of late Roman military and Roman civil date. A post-medieval dtiched feature partially excavated during 2010 investigations, was further examined.
