Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works comprising an evaluation followed by monitoring of ground-breaking works was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group in advance of the construction of an adventure playground within the policies of Dumfries House, East Ayrshire. The works consisted of two phases, firstly a targeted 8% evaluation which uncovered the remains of a known WWII Prisoner of War Camp (NMRS No.NS52SW 112). This led to a mitigation strategy of a watching brief on all ground breaking works. The watching brief uncovered the remains of at least 5 buildings, a network of pathways and remains of ancillary structures belonging to 'Camp 22'. |
