NT 269 765 An archaeological watching brief was conducted between August and December 2001 on selected groundworks associated with a housing development. The development area had already been subject to archaeological excavation (DES 1999, 40-41), which uncovered evidence of medieval occupation. During this watching brief, the foundations of demolished post-medieval structures fronting Sandport Place and the Water of Leith were recorded. These are depicted on Wood's plan of 1777 and partly comprised a carpenter's yard.
