Abstract: |
Prior to the redevelopment of 52-52A Annandale Street, Edinburgh a programme of watching briefs and evaluation was required. The reason for the requirement was that this was the site of the former Olympia Skating Place and the proposed location of WW2 air raid shelters. However, map evidence indicated that this was an unlikely site for the air raid shelters which were most likely located on an adjacent site. Five trenches were excavated amounting to 10% of the site and no evidence of the skating place was found. It is considered that this was comprehensively demolished during an earlier phase of redevelopment. |
