Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works was required by Chivas Brothers Ltd in respect to the construction of a block of new warehouses at Willowyard, North Ayrshire. The archaeological works were designed to inform the assessment of the impact on the archaeological resource from the proposed development. In all 72 intrusive evaluation trenches were excavated amounting to an 8% sample of the proposed development area. No significant archaeological remains were uncovered. The only remains identified were field drains, furrows and features associated with the demolished 19th to 20th century Mains Farm. Hence the proposed development will not adversely impact the archaeological resource. The site of the now demolished Mains Farm was excluded from the evaluation exercise. The assessment of impact assumes the continued exclusion of this ground from the development. |
