A programme of fieldwork was undertaken during the construction phase of Fallage Rig windfarm in the Lammermuir Hills. Previously identified sites were fenced off and a watching brief took place during the construction of access roads. No sites were discovered. At the confluence of Kersons Cleugh and the Dye Water, part of an NMRS settlement (NT65NW 10) was excavated. Two small rectangular buildings of similar overall size but different construction were shown to probably date to the Middle Saxon period. Pottery, loom weights, spindle whorls, a glass bead and an iron knife were recovered. Other curving walls, a trackway and a bank were recorded.
