Abstract: |
ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd were commissioned by Mr Finlay McColl to undertake an archaeological watching brief associated with the erection of a garage and tack room adjacent to The Smiddy, near Lamington in South Lanarkshire. The proposed development area lies adjacent to the suspected route of a Roman Road. While it was felt the remains of the road are likely to underlie the existing A702, the possibility that associated evidence such as quarry pits could be recorded within the proposed development area was recognised. The watching brief failed to reveal any features or artefacts of archaeological interest. ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd confirm the site to be archaeologically sterile and recommend the planning condition be discharged. |
