Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Historic Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Executive to undertake a topographic and earthwork survey of the Castle Glen industrial area (Site 68), North Lanarkshire. The Castle Glen area is part of extensive industrial remains surviving throughout the Castlecary glen which include lime workings, quarrying and mining. Other probable contemporary features include banks, trackways, revetting and terracing. The earthwork and topographic survey comprised the recording of visible archaeological remains located in the glen. A putative clamp kiln was identified during the works. An evaluation was undertaken on the feature in december 2007. It was revealed to be two mounds of made ground, one associated with the construction of the A80 and the second probably with the construction of the river revetment. L Scott 2007. |
