Abstract:		 A condition survey on part of the NE portion of Whinny Hill in Holyrood Park after some areas of grass and gorse thickets were damaged by fire. Although the fire had revealed some areas, much of the area remained inaccessible due to the gorse. The survey identified and mapped the extent of the fire damage while taking the opportunity to assess any potential archaeology which could have been exposed as a result. The area affected measured c.200m E/W x 100m N/S. There are several walking paths winding up the steep slope of the NE side of the summit of Whinny Hill. The area is covered with large thickets of gorse separated by areas of open rough grassland. Four large gorse thickets were burnt-out, with the areas in between them scorched or badly burned. Each defined area of damage was given a specific area number, photographed and described. A potential low bank seen may possibly be part of the larger scheme of field banks (un-dated) which can be traced on the plan in RCAHMS Broadsheet No. 6: Holyrood Park - The Archaeology of a Royal Park, 1998.
