Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology conducted an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching at Dundas Castle Farms, Dalmeny, NT 1297 7696 (centred), to assess the presence/absence of archaeological features in an area identified as having good archaeological potential in the Forth Replacement Crossing Environmental Statement (Jacobs Arup, 2009). The work was commissioned by Transport Scotland, managed and monitored by Jacobs Arup and undertaken in advance of the proposed commencement of construction works. . Three trenches (216m2) were excavated comprising a 5% sample across the field. With the exception of rubble field drains and a geotechnical pit from earlier investigations, no archaeological features were found in any of the trenches. |
