Activities

Desk Based Assessment (2012)

CFA Archaeology Ltd undertook an assessment of the cultural heritage implications of the proposed route of a replacement overhead line (XF Route) from Neilston, Renfrewshire to Windyhill, East Dunbartonshire.

Although 109 cultural heritage features were identified by the desk-based assessment of the 250m buffer around the proposed route of the replacement XF overhead line, very few of these lie along the route of the line, or in immediate vicinity of the location of any of the towers.

The overhead line replacement project has been assessed against the cultural heritage baseline. Taking into account the construction methodology to be employed and agreed mitigation strategy, it is considered that the development conforms to Local and National Policy relating to the cultural heritage resource.

Archaeological Evaluation (17 April 2014 - 28 May 2014)

NS 47702 73029 A programme of work was undertaken, 17 April – 28 May 2014, in advance and during the construction of an extension to a memorial wall on the N side of North Dalnottar Cemetery. The area was considered of interest as it borders the Antonine Wall. The excavation of an evaluation trench recorded a layer of small stones associated with the

construction a post-medieval wall. A subsequent watching brief during ground-breaking work associated with the construction of the wall recorded no finds or features of archaeological significance.
