NS 695 680 An evaluation was undertaken, 27 April – 3 May 2016, on a 15ha area to the S of Johnston Loch, in advance of a residential development. The work consisted of the machine trenching of 6360m², 8% of the available development area, which is located in an area of sloping,
improved pasture. The area has been extensively drained with modern ceramic pipes placed at 3.0m intervals across the site. The drains all appeared to run into Johnston Loch.
