Abstract:		 In the light of findings from a geophysical survey undertaken in 2013 (Rose Geophysics and Kirkdale Archaeology (2013): Geophysical Survey Report, Tantallon Castle (RGC1379/TTC), Historic Scotland; Kirkdale Archaeology (2013): Report No. HSCO-90295-2013-01) further test trenching was undertaken during May 2014. This programme of work followed on from the first site evaluation (2013) when seven trenches were excavated. This second stage of the evaluation saw the excavation of five main trenches and four shallow trial pits at various locations in and around the castle as part of a comprehensive overview of the site. The general aim of the five formal trenches was to define and characterise a series of geophysical anomalies which possibly reflected a range of archaeological contexts from various periods. In combination, these trenches were intended to provide key evidence of the location, depth, condition, complexity and extent of the overall archaeological resource. In addition, a series of four small trial pits were excavated across the line of an active service trench (electricity) in order to establish its precise location.
