LT2010 m. pagal tarp bendrovės "Energetikos objektų statyba" ir BRIAI pasirašytą sutartį buvo atlikti žvalgomieji tyrinėjimai ir žvalgymai Klaipėdos senamiesčio ir priemiesčio teritorijoje: Turgaus, Pakalnės ir projektuojamos Bastionų gatvių atkarpose. Prieš žemės judinimo darbus, susijusius su elektros kabelio tiesimu, buvo ištirti 8 šurfai (18 m²), vėliau atlikti 361,6 m ilgio (iš viso 162,72 m²) trasos žvalgymai, suskirsčius ją pagal gatves į 3 atkarpas. Tęsiant tyrimus aukščiausioje tirtos Turgaus gatvės atkarpoje, šurfe 8 2,1 m gylyje aptiktas smulkių lauko riedulių grindinys. Dėl aukščiau atkastų požeminių komunikacijų, perpus susiaurinusių šurfo apimtį, šioje vietoje toliau nebesigilinta. Be grindinio, šios atkarpos aplinkoje užfiksuota atvirkštinė stratigrafija, kuria nustatyta, kad paviršinio sluoksnio su XVII a. radiniais ir žmogaus šlaunikauliu turinys yra ankstyvesnis nei po juo esančio griuvenų sluoksnio su baltai ar juodai glazūruotais kokliais, datuojamais XVIII a. II puse. Sluoksnis galėjo būti perklostytas įrenginėjant šiluminę trasą, kuri buvo užfiksuota žvalgymų metu. [...] [p. 343, 346].
ENDuring the evaluation, 8 test pits (18 m2) were excavated and the digging of a 361.6 m long trench (162.72 m2) monitored (a total of 180.72 m2) in segments of Turgaus, Pakalnės, and planned Bastionų streets in Klaipėda. This segment’s earliest layer, which contained finds from the second half of the 17th-18th centuries, was recorded during the evaluation on Bastionų street. The metre 101–132 segment of Pakalnės street, where a stone wall ran NE-SW (60º-240º), should be deemed the most valuable part of the street. It was ascertained that fieldstones, the gaps filled with split stones and lime mortar, had been used to build the roughly 90 cm high wall. As no finds were discovered during the evaluation, it is difficult to date the 31 m long wall, but a more comprehensive investigation in the future would allow the structure’s functional significance and chronological context to be ascertained From the field evaluation conducted in a segment of Turgaus Street, it was ascertained that a layer of clay over 50 cm thick predominates along the bastion’s inner slope. This layer is connected with the creation of the bastions, which ringed the city in the 17th–18th centuries. After excavating test pit 7 and monitoring the construction trench, it was determined that prior to creating the bastion or its slopes in this part of the city in the 17th–18th centuries, household and construction waste was intensively dumped here, in the vicinity of which was discovered part of a simple wooden structure, probably a shed.Under this 1 m thick layer was recorded a cultural layer from the second half of the 16th-17th centuries, which is chronologically close to the environment created during the existence of the Church of St John that stood nearby. The undisturbed paving, which had been created using small fieldstones and recorded at a depth of 2.1 m in test pit 8, should be ascribed to this context.
