Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during ground-works for a playground extension at Leith Academy Primary School. The watching brief was required because the playground extension lay in close proximity to the former Victorian Mission Hall (now a boxing club) where a pit was previously discovered and contained a number of 15th century burials. However the watching brief only identified a few stone setts immediately beneath the modern tarmac which indicated the presence of an earlier cobbled surface. No other archaeological features or deposits were revealed. |
