Abstract:
AOC Archaeology Group undertook an archaeological evaluation and excavation on behalf of Cala Homes (East) Ltd during residential development of land at Friarsfield Road, Cults, Aberdeen. Prior to any archaeological work development on-site had begun limiting the area available for archaeological investigation. A total of 16 evaluation trenches with an area of 2318m2 were excavated in the 1.8ha area that was unaffected by the development works representing more than the 10% sample required. The evaluation revealed a simple stratigraphic sequence of thin topsoil overlying sandy clay glacial till subsoil. No significant archaeological features were identified during the evaluation. Archaeological features were identified in an area stripped of topsoil during the development works. This area was hand cleaned and series of small pits was revealed. No identifiable patterns or structures were apparent, however all the features were heavily truncated. No diagnostic dating material was recovered from the excavation.
