Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological monitoring works was required by Scottish Water for site investigation works carried out in advance of a programme of renovation and construction at the Lockerbie WWTW, Dumfries and Galloway. These archaeological works were designed to mitigate any adverse impact on any archaeological remains within the development area. The works consisted of a series of three small test pits which were excavated within the grounds of the WWTW. The test pits revealed no significant archaeological features or artefacts but they also demonstrated that certain areas within the grounds had been left relatively untouched by the construction of the WWTW. The possibility that unknown archaeological remains or remains relating to the nearby enclosure 'Fairholm Fort' and associated cropmarks may still be present in these relatively untouched areas cannot be ruled out. |
