Abstract:
A programme of archaeological works was required by Cloburn Quarry Development Ltd in respect of the quarry extension at Cloburn Quarry, Lanark, South Lanarkshire (Planning ref: CL/14/0140). The archaeological works were designed to mitigate the impact on an identified cairn identified within the development area. During these works the Bronze Age cairn was fully excavated and shown to have consisted of two concentric annular kerbs, with two cists present within the space defined by the inner kerb. Two cremations where recovered from within one of these cists while a third possible urned cremation was identified within the larger cairn. Artefacts recovered included Bronze Age and Iron Age pottery along with flint tools. In addition a Middle Bronze Age copper alloy Rapier was also recovered from within the cairn fabric. The cairn, including the cists, had clearly been extensively disturbed in relatively recent time (i.e. after the late 18th century) with displaced cairn fabric cast to the NE and SW. This displaced material, and possibly the primary cairn, also appear to have been subsequently robbed of stone.
