Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out at Castle Wood between Old and New Caelaverock Castle to monitor the recovery of a geotechnical core extracted from a borehole close to the proposed location of a new boardwalk. The core attained a maximum depth of -3.6m below the present ground surface and it contained five biostratigraphical units. The most dominant unit was Units 3 and 4 that comprised a deep deposit of marine (Carse) clay which was locally extensive. This deposit overlay breccia bedrock comprising of fractured rock and gravel. The carse clay (classified as the New Castle Surface) relates to the Main Postglacial Transgression of high sea level the onset of which is dated to c.6590 ± 65 14C years BP and culminating at about 4000 14C BP at Newbie Cottages near Annan.
