Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation was undertaken prior to an additional phase of building at Melville Gate Data Centre, Dalkeith in March 2009. The Data Centre is located on the site of a Roman fort (known as Elginhaugh), identified and partially excavated in the 1980s. The annexe of the fort had not previously been fully investigated, and the results of an evaluation in 2007 indicated that elements of the annexe survived within the footprint of the proposed development. Therefore an excavation of the remaining area of the annexe was required to fulfil a planning condition. The excavation revealed a series of ditches and a post-built gateway. Other previously unknown features were identified including a well, a putative roadside building and ditches subdividing the interior of the annexe. A coin of Emperor Trajan (AD97-117) was discovered within the backfill of an enclosure ditch, a decade later in date than any previous coins found within the annexe or fort.
