Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on behalf of Woolgar Hunter during ground breaking works for a proposed primary school on Donaldson Street, Kirkintilloch. The site is immediately south of the Forth and Clyde Canal and was previously a former 19th Century Iron Foundry. The scope of the works was determined by East Dunbartonshire Council as advised by Rathmell Archaeology and was designed to safeguard the archaeological resource from any adverse impact during the initial site investigation works. The works were also required as a condition of Scheduled Monument Consent on works within the Scheduled area of the Forth and Clyde Canal. Within the scheduled area, a small section of a rough cobbled surface was revealed that may relate to the tow path of the original canal banks. The remainder of the scheduled area had been heavily truncated by modern services and road construction so no other archaeological features were revealed. Out with the scheduled area no archaeological features or artefacts were revealed. |
