Abstract:		 A programme of works consisting of a post-felling walkover survey and a targeted watching brief was carried out during the construction of an overhead power line running between Coylton, South Ayrshire and New Cumnock, East Ayrshire. The post-felling survey found no new upstanding archaeological remains, and it is likely that previous forestry operations destroyed any potential sites. Sites 44, 48, 53, 57, 64, 69, 72 and 87 outside the afforested area were visited and found to be as previously described, except for site 57 which could not be located due to thick forestry. These sites were demarcated to avoid damage during the groundbreaking works for nearby planned access tracks. During the watching brief phase, three small features were discovered and likely to be of agricultural origin, as well as several instances where field drains were present in areas of improved land. No other significant buried archaeological remains were present during the course of this phase.
