A monitored strip was carried out during all ground breaking work for the upgrading to the lower section of the main access path to the summit of North Berwick Law. The excavation depth rarely fully removed topsoil, although the uppermost sections revealed areas of bedrock outcrop close to the current ground surface. With the exception of a piece of possible worked quartz, and occasional small fragments of unarticulated animal bone and tooth recovered from the topsoil, no artefacts or features of archaeological significance were identified.
