Activities

Field Visit (14 November 1985)

Site visited by Scottish Borders Council Archaeology Service. Information from SBC

Standing Building Recording (February 1989)

Instructions were received from the Scottish Development Agency on 5th July 1988 to carry out a dimensional survey of property at Marina Parade, Eyemouth. The S.D.A. were funding this survey to allow a structural assessment to be made of the various buildings adjacent to the Harbour Master's Office and the Contentented Sole public house. This study was required to allow Berwickshire District Council to promote housing redevelopment in this area. Our findings are outlined in detail on pages 2-17 but in our opinion the buildings have deteriorated to such an extent that they should be demolished and the site cleared for future redevelopment.
