Watching Brief (3 November 2009 - 13 November 2009)
NO 5095 1691 A watching brief was undertaken 3–13 November 2009 during construction works associated with a development on a former squash court to the W of Butt’s Wynd and E of the university library. A small assemblage of unstratified early 13th- and 14th-century pottery sherds was recovered. However, as this was residual material from a later remixed garden soil it only hints at local activity in the area. No other significant archaeological finds or features were recorded.
