A 0.5–1.1 m thick cultural layer horizon from the late 16th – early 17th century was recorded at a depth of 1.9–2.3 m.

Two levels of wooden constructions were distinguished: an upper one dating to the mid-17th – early 18th century and a lower one (a well and pipe fragments) dating to the late 16th century.During the evaluation at Subačiaus St. 26 it was established that the cultural layer in the N part of the plot is up to 3.7 m thick. Two terraces of the current slope were formed in the 1960s. The lower layers were probably formed during the late 17th–18th centuries. The cultural layer in the vicinity of the fragments of the late 17th-century foundation found in the NW of the plot is up to 3.3 m thick. The upper horizons of the layer were formed in the 20th century, the lower in the 18th century. The cultural layer in the W and S of the plot were destroyed or dug up in the 1960s.
