NT 3920 7372 An evaluation was carried out at Prestonpans Station on 10-11 May 2007 in advance of the construction of a car park. The proposed development area is believed to lie on the route taken by defeated government troops fleeing the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745. A number of field drains of the horseshoe type were uncovered, but there were no features, deposits or artefacts of archaeological significance.
