Abstract: |
Archaeological works undertaken in respect of proposed works in New Abbey, Dumfries and Galloway (centred on NGR: NX 96393 65967). The proposed works comprised a project to modernise the existing overhead utility low voltage electrical line within the village of New Abbey (and associated Sweetheart Abbey). In detail the project works consisted of: part refurbishment of the overhead line existing circuit (including wooden utility poles) and part removal of overhead lines and undergrounding of the circuit along footpaths, roads and private properties. Sweetheart Abbey is a Scheduled Monument (SM 90923) and as such is legally protected under the Ancient Monument and Archaeological Areas Act 1979. Scheduled Monument Consent (SMC) was therefore required from Historic Environment Scotland (HES) to undertake any works within the scheduled area. |
