Abstract:
This report presents the results of an archaeological excavation undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group prior to the construction of a new LIDL at Easter Road, Edinburgh. The initial evaluation revealed the base foundation slabs of a possible building not correlating to any of the cartographic evidence for the site. Also revealed were some large rectangular pits, possible cotemporaneous with the foundations. The following excavation detailed in this report uncovered further sandstone wall foundations, as well as associated features and red brick industrial remains. The sandstone remains were of single coursing and largely truncated. These likely relate to Victorian greenhouses associated with Drum House Nursery. The red brick structures were later in date, probably associated with the later Edina Copper works. No further archaeological works are considered necessary with post-excavation analysis not being deemed a requirement. This will need confirmed by CECAS.
