Abstract: |
Archaeological excavations of site investigation trenches were conducted by AOC Archaeology within the development area of Saughton Hall, Edinburgh. The excavations were localised to four trenches that were investigating the former Saughton Hall walls as well as areas requiring up to three metre deep investigations for engineering purposes. Three of the trenches revealed remains relating to the various phases of Saughton Hall. The main external wall of the house, some internal walls and drainage features were all revealed within 14 m of trench. These findings from these works match the findings of the earlier evaluation and community excavation that show the foundation levels of the former house all survive under the modern compound and landscaping. |
