AOC Archaeology was commissioned by Lafarge Cement UK Ltd to undertake an historic building survey on the former farm steading at East Barns to the south of the town of Dunbar in East Lothian. Following the demolition of the remaining buildings, an archaeological evaluation equalling 500 linear metres was undertaken as well as an excavation of the old farmhouse once it was uncovered as part of the evaluation. These works were part of the planning condition on the part-listed steading prior to the complete removal of the site for quarrying.
