Abstract:
A series of watching briefs was maintained during the excavation of small trenches at various locations around Holyrood Park. This was to allow the installation of 13 orientation signs inside the entrances to the park. Where possible the signs were wall mounted or fixed to railings or gates. However, seven of the signs required trenches to be dug for concrete bases. The seven trenches measured a uniform 1.35 m x 600 mm and were 400 mm deep. The deposits encountered were predominantly of modern date, showing much recent disturbance or landscaping, although in some places there were undisturbed horizons, possibly 18th century in date.
