A phase of archaeological mitigation work was undertaken in support of Ground Investigation (GI) works within the site of the former Guildiehaugh Depot, Bathgate. This archaeological work was undertaken to establish the presence, extent and nature of any significant archaeological remains that may have existed within the Site boundary. An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during ground-breaking work associated with GI test pitting and boreholes across the site to support any subsequent planning submissions. During the monitoring it was noted that the site stratigraphy predominantly consisted of varying depths of redeposited ground directly overlying either natural gravels, sands or clay; concrete or deep deposits of built up material. No archaeological features or deposits were encountered or observed during the monitoring work.
