Abstract:		 Alder Archaeology conducted a watching brief (HR02) on replacement of a faulty 11 Kv power cable where it intersected a line of presumed Roman gravel-pits along the N flank of the Roman road from Camelon to Cargill, SM3630. The pit alignment is clearly seen as crop marks on aerial photographs. The watching brief confirmed that the pits continue right up to the E boundary of the field, where they are obscured by an overgrown hedgerow. The soft brown fill of the pit appeared in the base of the existing cable trench, about 1 m below modern ground surface, cut into yellow natural gravel and defining a feature about 1.8 m across. No artefacts were recovered except for modern rubbish. The cable was renewed within the existing trench, and backfilled. The watching brief took place on 16th March 2020, and was commissioned by Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks.
