AOC Archaeology Group undertook a watching brief on behalf of Scottish Water in relation to a sewer upgrade in Holyrood Park. The work consisted of several test pits to test for services along the route of the new sewer and the cut for the sewer itself.

The sewer track was 40m x 5m to a maximum depth of 5m. The soil matrix consisted of a topsoil, overlying made ground deposits.

No significant archaeological finds or features were recovered. No
