Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group prior to a proposed student accommodation development at 165 Castlebank Street, Partick, Glasgow. The evaluation consisted of 372m2 of trench across the development area, focussing on the former dry dock and associated buildings. The deposits on site consisted of made ground, averaging over 1.5m in depth, that is mainly related to the demolition of the buildings that formerly occupied the site, and the infill of the former dry dock. Within the dry dock, the rubble infill deposits measured 3.5m over the top of the dock wall, with the central deposits expected to be greater than 8m in depth. A line of coping stones was revealed on the eastern edge of the dock area at a depth of 1.6 m that likely relates to a retaining wall around the dock yard. The trenches revealed that the former buildings surrounding the dock have been entirely removed by later activity. |
