Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology Ltd undertook a watching brief on foundation trench excavations associated with a housing development at Mid-Hermiston Steading, Edinburgh. The monitoring was undertaken in order to identify and record any archaeological remains that might be exposed during the works. The work was commissioned by Credential (Hermiston) Ltd, and a specification was agreed with the City of Edinburgh Council Archaeology Service. A significant number of foundation trenches and service trenches were monitored as part of the redevelopment. A large stone-lined well was recorded below the foundation of the 18th century steading walls and may relate to earlier 17th century activity on the site. A number of the foundation walls for the steading were also recorded within the trenches but no further features of archaeological significance were uncovered during the watching brief.
