Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring of 34 test pits and two boreholes on the site of a proposed single wind turbine and permanent meteorological mast was undertaken at Cathkin Braes, Carmunnock, Glasgow. There are a number of cairns and a circular earthwork located in the vicinity of the development site, which is situated on a hill and therefore there was the potential for the discovery of prehistoric remains. The test pits revealed 0.2 - 0.4m of topsoil generally overlying bedrock or in places orange brown stiff clay. No archaeological features were encountered. |
