NT 70513 41501 A programme of archaeological works was required during drainage works along the road through Hume village. The works extended into the Scheduled area of Hume Castle (SM 387) at their eastern extent. The watching brief revealed the remains of a crude stone surface across the entirety of the trench area representing a possible trackway or ancient road related to the castle and surrounding area. Material related to both 19th and 20th century activity was also observed during excavation. No other significant archaeological remains or small finds were discovered during the watching brief
