In August 2017, GUARD Archaeology Limited undertook an archaeological heritage impact assessment of an area of land at Queensferry High School, South Queensferry. The assessment found that there is one known cultural heritage site and one unknown cultural heritage site within the proposed development area. A further fourteen features of cultural heritage interest are located within the 100 m buffer zone surrounding the Site. One of them, Queensferry Conservation Area is of high cultural heritage significance while the rest are of local or regional cultural heritage significance. There is no previous archaeological investigation known to have been carried out within the proposed development area.
