Abstract:
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a programme of archaeological trial trenching works on a site located between Salamander Street and Baltic Street, Edinburgh. The work was required to help inform decisions regarding the future use of the land and any planning applications submitted. The evaluation trenches produced evidence for structures associated with the C18th Edinburgh and Leith Glassworks and the C19th Edinburgh and Leith Gasworks. Foundation walls for workshops around the cones of the glassworks were exposed, along with walls associated with the expansion of outbuildings on the site. Evidence for flues associated with a chimney of the gasworks and contemporary railway lines and outbuildings were also identified. The evaluation trenches demonstrated that the level of preservation across the site is generally very good, with the only truncation identified from the concrete footings of mid-20th century sheds
