Watching Brief (March 2009 - September 2009)
NS 790 939 (centred on) Three phases of a watching brief were carried out in mid March, June and late September 2009, in Stirling town centre during the renewal of water pipes. A total of 40 trenches were excavated revealing potentially late medieval midden deposits, an old sewer, an old road surface and a possible drain or wall, all of possible post-medieval date.
