Abstract:		 Addyman Archaeology was contracted by Hamish Hunter of Hunter Architects on behalf of Mr J Halliday, to carry out a programme of archaeological work at Fluthers Cottage, South Croft, Earlston, Scottish Borders, prior to its renovation and extension. The building had a rare surviving thatch and as such was Category B Listed. Due to the listing and the interest in the surviving thatch, works to the building required archaeological investigation and recording. The works involved a detailed Historic Building Survey of the structure internally and externally in plan and elevation. This showed the structure to be of two major phases: the first phase a plain 'barn,' possibly of 18th to early 19th century construction and the second phase (mid to late-19th Century ) a reordering of the structure to convert it into domestic accommodation. This reordering was characterised by the reuse of architectural features and fittings from multiple other buildings. A section was excavated through the existing thatch showing the thatch to be relatively modern (19th century?) and of a single phase with a large secondary patch on the north pitch. Further works involved the monitoring of foundation trenching for an extension. This exposed the early ground sloping down to the south as well as historic and modern levelling of the site. No artefacts earlier than the 19th century were found.
