Standing Building Recording (10 June 2010 - 25 June 2010)
NT 1321 7830 A standing building survey of the derelict buildings at 13 Edinburgh Road was undertaken 10–25 June 2010 prior to their redevelopment. The site consisted of two separate buildings, latterly joined together. Stylistically the buildings appeared to date to the 18th or early 19th century. Their internal features suggested that they were either domestic or perhaps used for some kind of light industry. The buildings had been altered several times with the insertion/blocking of doorways and hearths. Late in their use the external walls had been used to create a yard or storage area, with the internal area being levelled and concreted. The
excavation of this material was monitored but the structure had been cut into bedrock and no earlier archaeological remains were recorded.
