Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation and subsequent excavations were undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on behalf of J Smart and Co. plc during the construction of a residential and commercial development at West Bowling Green Street, Leith. After evaluating the development area, three excavation areas were opened: Area A to the north and east of West Bowling Green Street and Areas B and B1 to the south and west of West Bowling Green Street. Area A contained the foundation pillars and arched foundations of the 19th Century fertiliser works as well as an earlier sandstone and brick drainage junction. Area B and B1 revealed the remains of the 19th Century warehouse foundations cutting through several earlier 18th and 19th century buildings and features, one of which contained a couple of fragments of disarticulated human remains. Furthermore, several features relating to the late medieval period were revealed. Three ditches relating to field systems of Old Bonnington House estate as well as a group of features that most likely relate to the 1560 siege of Leith were uncovered, with several shards of medieval ceramics found within them.
