Abstract:
Headland Archaeology conducted an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on the Forth Replacement Crossing near Humbie Farm, Kirkliston (Land Parcel 16) NGR: NT 11037 74756 (centred), to assess the presence/absence of archaeological remains or deposits in an area identified as having archaeological potential in the Forth Replacement Crossing Environmental Statement (Jacobs Arup, 2009a). The work was commissioned by Transport Scotland, managed and monitored by Jacobs Arup and undertaken in advance of the proposed commencement of construction works. A total of 4 trenches totalling 256m2 were excavated comprising a 5% sample of the land parcel. The trenches were excavated on 31st March 2011 and were sited to ensure good spatial coverage of the area under investigation, although constraints to the layout were imposed due to a gas main running through the middle of the area to be evaluated. The trial trenching revealed a number of rubble filled field drains relating to the post medieval agricultural activity on site. A modern ditch was also recorded but no other archaeological remains or deposits were identified during the evaluation. Kirsty Dingwall (Headland Archaeology Ltd) 2011.
