A watching brief was carried out by CFA Archaeology Ltd at Edinburgh Castle. The works involved the removal of the existing tunnel control kiosk at the north-west end of the Esplanade and the erection of a new kiosk in the area immediately adjacent to the existing location. Relocation of the kiosk required the down-taking of a short stretch of low wall to the west, the installation of two concrete foundation lintels and a recess cut into the existing tarmac for a new low stone wall. The ground breaking works encountered no archaeological features or deposits.
