Abstract: |
In advance of the commemoration of the 700 anniversary of the battle of Bannockburn in 2014 the 'Bannockburn Big Dig' archaeological investigations were carried out by GUARD Archaeology Limited, in collaboration with the Centre for Battlefield Archaeology at the University of Glasgow, the National Trust for Scotland (NTS) and BBC Scotland. These investigations consisted of geophysical survey, metal-detecting and the excavation of test pits and took place between 22nd and 30th August 2013. The aim of the project was to define the boundaries of the battle site and possibly locate sites of conflict within that boundary. The work was achieved with the help of volunteers from the local community and included excavations within private residents' gardens at Cambusbarron. The metal-detecting survey was also carried out across the Redhall site by members of the Scottish Artefact Recovery Group (SARG) and Detecting Scotland working alongside GUARD Archaeology staff. There were 44 individual volunteers involved in the project under supervision of experienced archaeologists. In this way 26 test pits were excavated during the course of the project. |
