Abstract: |
The first phase of an archaeologically monitored topsoil strip was undertaken in relation to the Renewal of Old Mineral Permission (ROMP) at Hyndford Quarry, Lanark. The topsoil strip was undertaken on an area of undulating open farmland to the immediate south of the existing quarry face. A natural pond containing several species of nesting birds restricted the stripped area to a small triangle approx 4000m2. Three small pits containing Bronze Age beaker pottery were revealed at the base of a small hollow, to the north of the pond area and only 2m south of the current quarry face. |
