Abstract: |
Prior to a residential development an archaeological evaluation, comprising of a 5% trenching sample, was undertaken on the site of the former Labour Club at Well Wynd, Tranent, East Lothian. The site was covered by a layer of modern building rubble which overlay a deposit of soft sediment that contained 19th/20th pottery which overlay natural subsoil. Trench.1 contained a shallow pit containing an articulated horse skeleton. The skeleton was well preserved but the fill also contained 19th/20th pottery so the burial could not have been more than 100 years old, probably less. No residual earlier finds were noted within any of the soils encountered on the site.In summary neither significant archaeological artefacts nor features were observed. |
