Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring works undertaken in respect in respect of proposed works at Sands of Luce Holiday Park, Sandhead, Stranraer, Wigtownshire (NGR: NX 10261 50963). The proposed works comprise: change of use of agricultural land to form extension to existing holiday park for the siting of an additional 59 static caravans, formation of access tracks, installation of sewage treatment plant and lighting bollards and associated works (planning application no. 18/1143/FUL). The proposal is for the extension of the current holiday park to the south-west, towards Sandhead. Although there is no known archaeology on the site, recent aerial surveys undertaken by HES (and RCAHMS prior to that) in the areas west and south of the application area over the last seven years have revealed a number of prehistoric sites, visible as cropmarks, in the fields above the raised beach overlooking Luce Bay. In order to access the potential for archaeological remains within the proposed development Dumfries and Galloway Council Archaeology Service asked for a watching brief be undertaken during all ground breaking works for the road; caravan bases within the southern area and the septic tank. The archaeological monitoring works were required to ensure appropriate archaeological recording of any features that are uncovered as well as recovering of any finds and based on the results the necessity for further works. No significant archaeological finds or features were uncovered during monitoring of the ground reduction works .
