Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological watching brief undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on behalf of Scottish Water in relation to excavations associated with an existing water main at Edinburgh Castle Esplanade (NGR: NT 25378 73520). The proposed works lie at the north-eastern end of the Esplanade at the entrance to Castlehill. No significant archaeological remains or artefacts were revealed during the watching brief. The only remains encountered being a large, possibly carved, stone in the modern infill associated with the road surface preparation and services. |
