An archaeological watching brief was undertaken to monitor ground breaking works at the Kings Stables Road Entrance to Princes Street Gardens and falling within the Scheduled area surrounding Edinburgh Castle. The works were part of project to improve the entranceway and included landscaping and gate replacement. During the watching brief the remains of a wall of 19th origin was exposed below the level of the current road surface, the wall probably relates to the Victorian sewers. Made ground of 19th century origin was observed on both sides of the Princes Street Gardens wall. |
