Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by GUARD Archaeology Limited, on behalf of Stewart Milne Homes on an area proposed for the construction of housing at Colinhill, Strathaven, South Lanarkshire. The trial trench evaluation consisted of a series of 78 trenches varying in length between 25 m - 50 m and totalling 8% of the total area proposed for development. Several features of archaeological significance were encountered during the evaluation, consisting of several small pit and post-hole features spread around the lower slope break and a collection of four large pit features on the upper flat plateau within the northern field, one of which contained medieval green glaze ceramic The south-west area of the lower field was deemed inaccessible for trenching due to the marshy waterlogged nature of the ground here. |
