Activities

Archaeological Evaluation (January 2002)

An archaeological field evaluation was undertaken by Headland Archaeology of a possible linear earthwork in the grounds of the former Cardross Assessment Centre (NS 3458 7754) on the north side of the A814 in Cardross, Dumbarton. Cala Homes (West) Ltd has submitted an outline planning application to Argyle and Bute Council to develop the grounds

for residential housing. Local historians have suggested that the linear earthwork may represent the eroded remains of the boundary enclosing King Robert I hunting park.
