Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation undertaken prior to the construction of a residential development on land either side of Lasswade Road, Eskbank (NGR: NT 31712 66845) and ( NT 31790 66581). The evaluation uncovered a system of intensive agricultural drainage. No significant archaeological features or material was observed. The remains of the Eskbank Roman Camp Complex is thought to intrude on the eastern boundary of the site. Unfortunately, the presence of a large overhead powerline restricted the evaluation in this area. It is suggested that further mitigation in the form of an archaeological watching brief or monitored topsoil strip will be required in order to evaluate the survival of archaeology below the power lines. |
