Abstract:		 A watching brief was carried out during ground breaking works associated with the construction of the grid connection for the Clyde Windfarm. The work was carried out during the laying of the interconnect cables from the Clyde Windfarm Substations to the grid. One previously unknown feature of archaeological significance, a pit containing prehistoric material, was identified during the watching brief. Pre-construction excavations and evaluations were carried out on sections of the cable route where it crossed the projected line of the Border - Crawford - Inveresk, Roman Road (Site 11) and the Torwood - Dalswinton - Crawford, Roman Road (Site 20) and Site 65, a MoLAR farmstead and field system. The results of this pre-construction work are described under separate covers. The effect on the upstanding remains of the lazy beds was kept to a minimum and a section across a few of them indicated that they had been spade dug, due to the sharp profiles on the edges of the beds. The beds were 3.8m wide with the intervening drainage channels being 1m wide. An evaluation was undertaken along the route of the Clyde Winfarm Cable, and was required where the cable route crossed the supposed line of a Roman Road (Site 20 - RR4, NMRS No. NS91NE 31, SMR No. 12129), which runs from Torwood to Dalswinton to Crawford. A single continuous trench measuring c.400m by 2m was excavated. No traces of any such remains were found.
