Abstract: |
Eamonn Wall on behalf of their client commissioned Alder Archaeology to carry out a walkover survey and update a previous archaeological report (a desk-based assessment and walkover by SUAT in 2003) on an area of land to be planted with trees 1.5km to the south-west of Buteland farm near Balerno. The walkover was carried out on the 17th of April in reasonable weather conditions. Only two new sites were discovered, a field boundary and a possible peat cutting of unknown date, but upstanding rigg and furrow was found to practically cover the entire area. The proposed area of planting is located within a well preserved pre-improvement period arable landscape extending right across the foothills of the N side of the Pentlands. A basic distribution map of this old arable landscape was created from aerial photography as part of this project. Tamlin Barton (Alder Archaeology Ltd) 2012 |
