NT 904 659 A watching brief was carried out in April 2016 in advance of development. The area was considered of interest as is between Coldingham Priory and St Andrew’s Burn, which may have been canalised in the past. The work established that deep deposits of undated made ground were present. Very little natural subsoil was exposed. The findings suggest that the area had been terraced, probably during the construction of the current house.
