Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group in relation to a new school development at Roslin Primary School, Roslin, Midlothian. The evaluation required a 5% trenching sample of the proposed development area, currently the school playing fields. Due to the depth of soils found within the evaluation area the number of trenches was reduced. From the two trenches excavated, a medieval soil horizon was encountered that appears to be bounded by a linear ditch along the SW edge of the development area. One small pit was also encountered within Trench 1. After consultation with Mr. Andrew Robertson of East Lothian Council Archaeology Service (ELCAS) who advise Midlothian Council on archaeological matters, it was decided that further works would be required on site in the form of either a watching brief or a monitored topsoil strip. |
