Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology prior to the construction of a hotel development at 1-4 Edinburgh Airport Police Station, Almond Road, Edinburgh. The evaluation was due to comprise 200 linear metres of trench, but due to the abundance of live services within the site, the works were constrained to 80 linear metres. The only archaeological features revealed were agricultural field drains and furrows most likely dating to the post medieval period. The trenches also indicated that the previous development on the site had impacted heavily on the underlying subsoil, with very little prospect of archaeological survival out with the landscaped areas. |
