NT 242 728 An archaeological evaluation was conducted in July and August 2004 on part of a former Fountainbridge brewery complex (c 3.2ha) to the N of Dundee Street. Twenty-one trenches were excavated, with a combined basal area of 2637m2. No man-made features pre-dating the latter half of the 19th century were encountered, with the exception of a stone kerb, considered to be of early 19th-century origin.
A programme of historic building recording was undertaken on a building at 194 Dundee Street, on the southern boundary of the evaluation area, and a brief record was made of the earlier remains of buildings on the site, including the North Tunnel.
