Abstract:
ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd were contracted by Mr David Nimmo to undertake a programme of archaeological mitigation in advance of the construction of a dwelling house at Dundas Home Farm on the western periphery of the City of Edinburgh. The archaeological works followed the placement of a planning condition upon the proposed development by City of Edinburgh Council Archaeology Service. The condition required that the site be investigated through the placement of archaeological evaluation trenches across the footprint of the building. The results of this phase of works would be used to guide any requirement for future archaeological mitigation on site. The archaeological evaluation involved the mechanical excavation of 2 evaluation trenches across the footprint of the proposed development. Excavation of the trenches revealed the site to be archaeologically sterile. A deep deposit of mixed topsoil was removed to reveal an undisturbed firm clay subsoil. While a quantity of 19th and 20th century glass and ceramic fragments were recovered, no archaeological artefacts or features of significance were recorded. ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd recommend that the planning condition can now be discharged.
