Abstract: |
Desk-Based Assessment and Evaluation on the site of a proposed medical centre. The DBA revealed that much of the site lay within the inter-tidal zone until the 1930s, with probably colliery-related land-reclaimation occurring around that time. Further made ground may have been added in the 1950s. Five trenches were excavated revealing deep made ground overlying beach deposits. No significant archaeological remains were revealed and there were no deposits of ceramics or other industrial products from Prestonpans or elsewhere within the made ground. |
