Abstract:
Archaeological monitoring works were undertaken in respect to the development of St Andrews, Fife; these works were required by Fife Council and took place within Market Street. The core development comprised the reduction and repaving of the pavements area and main road. Additional works, such as the excavation of service ducts for the installation of street lighting and power sources; the excavation of manholes and tree pits for landscaping purposes were also covered by the archaeological mitigation. The archaeological works were designed to mitigate the impact of this development on the area. Several significant archaeological features were uncovered and recorded during the course of the development work. These features related to the use of Market Street as a main street of the burgh over long periods of time and included surviving elements of the Tolbooth, Market Cross and Tron. While it was possible to suggest a historical origin for some of the archaeological features exposed, the extent of investigation was necessarily constrained by the limits of excavation inherent within the works monitored.
