Abstract: |
A Photographic survey was conducted at Samsiston Farm in support of a desk-based assessment of the historical map record. Regression analysis confirms that the farmstead was built during the early 19th century. The farmstead occupies a U-shaped courtyard plan with detached farmhouse. The main economy at the farm has been stock rearing. Approximately 900m south west of Samsiston Farm are the ruins of Chriton's Burn. Two buildings survive to a height of 0.5m. Building A measures 10m by 4m north-south. Building B measures 8m x 4m north-south and is less well preserved. A circular stack-stand is present about 8m south of Building 8. Both Samsiston Farm and the Chriton's Burn buildings are to be cordoned off and protected from open-cast mining extension work |
