Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by GUARD Archaeology Ltd of the proposed for the Melrose Crematorium development area to the south of Melrose. The trial trench evaluation encountered a limited number of undated features. Two linear features, one aligned north/south and the second east/west, were recorded along the northern part of the development area. A stone built culvert was recorded aligned east/west along the lowest lying central part of the development area as well as numerous rubble drains encountered in most of the trenches. Putative rig and furrow cultivation remnants were visible towards the south eastern part of the evaluation area. A heavily abraded fragment of what may be prehistoric pottery was recovered from the subsoil of one of the trenches.
