Scope and Content An archaeological watching brief was carried out between June 14th and June 20th the northern starting point of the cable trench (NJ64961 33749) south to the A920, some 250m due south of Kirkton Farm. Stripping of the topsoil by a 20-ton 360°excavator commenced on June 14th, 2016 with the clearing of a 3.5 to 4m-wide corridor. The subsoil consisted of a reddish-brown sandy-silt with the frequent inclusion of angular stones dispersed amongst grit-laden gravelly deposits. The depth of the topsoil remained largely consistent throughout the topsoil strip, averaging 0.35m to 0.50m in depth. Visual inspection of the corridor revealed a series of discreet archaeological features located at NJ64956 32680 (NW edge), in the field due south of Kirkton Farm, at a point some 35m north of the A920.
