Abstract: |
Due to the proximity of the medieval core of Dumbarton, an archaeological evaluation was undertaken by GUARD Archaeology Ltd across the former site of the Burgh hall located near the junction of Castle Street and Church Street. A number of evaluation trenches and boreholes were opened up, revealing that the Site has been extensively developed and redeveloped during the eighteenth and twentieth century. The evaluation demonstrated that the potential for surviving archaeology is limited due to the extent of demolition material. No archaeological features were encountered other than the remains of a possible air raid/explosion shelter associated with the gas works. |
