Abstract:
This report contains the results of an archaeological Watching Brief on all ground breaking works associated with the construction of an overspill car park, on land adjacent to St Ninian's Way, Linlithgow. The development site lies to the immediate west of the medieval core of Linlithgow and south of the edge Linlithgow Loch, which is scheduled as part of the Linlithgow Palace, Peel and Royal Park Scheduled Monument (Index No. 13099). It involved the monitoring of ground-breaking works associated with the removal of trees and car park surfaces; the stripping of topsoil; the cutting of gullies, trenches and manhole areas for drainage/sewerage features and the opening of trenches for lighting cables. The Watching Brief identified little of archaeological interest, with only occasional late post-medieval artefacts being recovered from topsoil/garden soil and made ground deposits. The only, tentative, evidence for the presence of former historic boundaries, took the form of rubble debris, including a large lump of ex situ former wall in the west of the site, and buried fence posts of 20th century date. The creation of the existing car park in the later 20th century clearly involved substantial disturbance of the area, with the removal of these former boundaries. Mike Roy 2014.
