Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on behalf of Persimmon Homes, on a land plot located at Duke Street, Larkhall, South Lanarkshire. The evaluation was undertaken as the initial part of a phased programme of works required as a condition of the planning consent for the development. The evaluation consisted of the machine trenching of 3940m², 8% of the available development area. A total of 5,840m2 was originally required; however the presence of extensive mature tree cover along the northern and western boundaries, areas of standing water and live services reduced the area that could feasibly be evaluated. The proposed development was situated in an area of undulating pasture. Significant industrial activity had occurred within the area during the latter part of the 19th century. Within the Phase 1 area this was illustrated by the presence of a large rubbish dump containing ceramic material, glass, brick and cinder. The dump appeared to infill a cut depression possibly associated with the Larkhall Colliery. With the exception of the dump neither significant archaeological features nor artefacts were encountered, and no further archaeological works are recommended, although this will have to be confirmed by the West of Scotland Archaeology Service, advisors to South Lanarkshire Council Council.
