Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology conducted an evaluation at Luffness Mains, Longniddry, East Lothian, to test the archaeological potential of an area of land and establish the location and extent of archaeological remains associated with crop marks identified on aerial photographs in advance of the construction of wind turbines. Three trenches were excavated across the development area with targeted trenching along the line of the proposed cable run. Several features including ditches and groups of pits were uncovered within one of the trenches, located on an area of relatively high ground with natural sand and gravel subsoil. Although limited finds and environmental evidence was obtained from the features, the recovery of a prehistoric pottery fragment from one of the ditches suggests that the features may be evidence of settlement activity in the prehistoric period. Although the features could not be directly related to the identified cropmark it is probable that the features do relate to the putative prehistoric activity evidenced by the cropmarks.
