Abstract:		 Addyman Archaeology was commissioned by Simpson and Brown Architects to carry out an archaeological watching brief at Merchiston Castle, Colinton Road, Edinburgh. The watching brief involved the breaking out of foundations at ground level and the removal of the reinforced concrete of the stairs built into the south frontage of the tower at 1st floor level. Both the demolitions of the stairs at the junction with the face of the castle and the below ground removal of the foundations all terminated within reinforced concrete and no preexisting fabric or deposits predating the concrete of the mid-20th C were exposed.
