Abstract:
Due to water ingress within the western half of the north side of the Scottish National War Memorial, an irregular area of concrete screed at the base of the outside face of the north wall was removed in stages under archaeological supervision. The concrete extended westwards along the full length of the N wall from its junction with the centrally placed semi octagonal apse . The present building is the latest in a series of major structures on the same site and was built between 1924 and 1927. The concrete was a single and extremely compacted deposit filling a series of shallow declivities within the bedrock. These were the result of clearance and quarrying activities associated with a small complex of early 19thC service structures including a cookhouse and wash house , which lay immediately N of the 18thC barrack block which was partly recycled to create the present Scottish National War Memorial.
