Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on the site of the proposed new school complex to replace the existing Deans Community High School, Livingston, West Lothian. Two trenches were excavated in the northwest corner of the existing playing fields, totalling 100 linear metres. The evaluation trenches were targeted at but failed to locate the remains of the 18th century building depicted on Roy''s map (1747-55). The vestiges of previous agricultural activities dating to the recent past were identified in the form of plough scarring and a relict field drainage system. No features of archaeological significance were encountered. |
