Abstract: |
A programme of evaluation trenching was conducted on an area of open waste ground at the western end of Kittoch Street, East Kilbride, in advance of a residential development. The work was required due to the position of the proposed development plot, immediately adjacent to the 18th century West Kirk. Two trenches were excavated under close archaeological supervision, a process that exposed features and finds of nineteenth or twentieth century porcelain and demolition rubble. These were compatible with what was previously known of the site, that housing was present in the nineteenth century and was demolished several decades before the present development. The site appears to have been built up with garden soil and rubble. No evidence of earlier activity was noted |
