Archaeological Evaluation (2001)
NO 5081 1655 A small archaeological evaluation was undertaken further to the results and recommendations of a previous watching brief (DES 2000, 43) prior to redevelopment.
Two trenches were dug. Trench 1 revealed 19th-century walling and 18th-century garden soil. Trench 2 revealed 19th-century demolition material overlying 18th-century garden soil, with finds of bottle glass and a clay pipe. Possibly medieval garden soil with oyster shells was found, but no other medieval deposits or features were identified.
Full report lodged with Fife SMR and the NMRS.
