Abstract: |
AOC undertook a programme of archaeological monitoring of all ground breaking works within five specified areas along the route of ground works associated with the laying of a new cable between Aikengall Windfarm and South Belton Substation, Dunbar. The works mainly comprised the stripping of topsoil, providing a 3 m wide wayleave, prior to the excavation of a cable trench 1.2 m wide and 1.3 m deep. No features or artifacts of archaeological significance were recorded across any of the five separate sites. At site 4, close to Chesterhall Farm House (The site of the Battle of Dunbar 1650), a programme of metal detecting was also undertaken prior to the ground works and again during the ground works. A moderate haul of metal objects were recovered during this work. |
