Abstract: |
AOC Archaeology Group was commissioned by Craigie's Farm Deli and Cafe to undertake an archaeological watching brief and metal detecting survey ahead of the proposed construction of a new access road serving Craigie's Farm, South Queensferry, Edinburgh. The metal detecting survey uncovered a number of metal finds, some of which may be 18th or 19th century in date and possibly relating to activity at the nearby farm or the stone quarry. Small finds included a cast copper rein guide of 18th/19th century date. The watching brief revealed a number of archaeological features. These included of two truncated stone surfaces and a stone linear feature, all of indeterminate date. Also recorded was a linear ditch. All archaeological features were preserved in situ. A fully costed PERD shall be provided. No further fieldwork is considered necessary. This will need to be confirmed by John Lawson of CECAS. |
