Abstract:
AOC Archaeology Group were commissioned by Cala Homes (East) Ltd to conduct and archaeological evaluation and subsequent excavation prior to the construction of a residential development at Newhouse, North Berwick, East Lothian (Planning Application No. 12/00338), (NGR: NT 5424 8467). An initial 5% evaluation of the 4.43ha site was conducted, comprising 2,250m2 of trenching equivalent to 1,125 linear metres with a machine bucket of 2.0m. The evaluation revealed a simple stratigraphic sequence of thin topsoil overlying glacial till deposits of sandy clay cut by numerous field drains. Significant archaeological features were limited to a single location around which a 30m by 30m trench was excavated. This trench revealed a heavily truncated rectangular structure on a NNW/SSE alignment measuring 13m by 9m with opposing entrances at the shorter north and south ends. The truncation of the structure and the lack of datable artefacts hindered its interpretation but it is probable that is the remains of a sill beam constructed building. Jamie Humble 2014.
