Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out during groundbreaking works for a new cycleway to the west of Seafield Place, Edinburgh. This is part of the Portobello to Sandport Cycleway. Features associated with the sidings leading to the Edinburgh Roperie and Sailcloth Works were demolished and much of the embankment material was removed. These sidings were constructed between 1896 and 1908. A building with a brick wall and a concrete floor was demolished. It is possible this was part of Eastfield, a group of buildings most of which fronted Salamander Street. Other buildings to the rear of these underlie the late 19th to early 20th century railway sidings and may lie within the area of the cycleway development. The brick boundary wall along the south side of the railway was cut through. No archaeological remains were present within the orchard or where the cycleway joins the existing paths within Leith Links.
