Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group prior to a residential development at Old Craighall, East Lothian. The evaluation consisted of 250 linear metres of trenching across the development area. The topsoil on site was a dark greyish brown sandy loam overlying a yellow clay and orangey brown sand and gravel. The north western half of the site had been covered by modern made ground up to 1 m thick that relates to the recent construction of residential properties adjacent to the site. The only archaeological features revealed by the evaluation were rubble drains and agricultural furrows relating to post medieval and modern agriculture. No significant archaeological features or artefacts were revealed throughout the evaluation. |
