Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on land due to be used for the extension of Ayr Cemetery, South Ayrshire. The evaluation revealed several small pits and large ditches in the SE corner of the development area that most likely relate to prehistoric settlement activity. All of the pit features contained abundant charcoal inclusions and a single worked flint flake was found within one. No formal structures were revealed within the trenches but the large ditches may indicate at least one enclosure containing the features. |
