Abstract: |
Under the terms of its PIC call-off contract with Historic Scotland, Kirkdale Archaeology was asked to oversee the excavation of a trench at Edinburgh Castle. Work took place intermittently between 05 April 2007 and 14 August 2007. The work comprised two elements - firstly a service trench was monitored and recorded and secondly an area was excavated archaeologically. The service trench contained possible evidence of the late 14thC Constable's Tower. The earliest features in the archaeological trench related to a road surfaces thought to predate the present route to the Portcullis Gate. |
