Archaeological Evaluation (27 April 2011 - 28 April 2011)
NT 3394 7230 An evaluation was undertaken, 27–28 April 2011, on a proposed residential development site. The excavation of trial trenches covering 187m2 indicated that most of the area was free of archaeological material. The only significant archaeological find was a small waster pit, which yielded a significant assemblage of waster sherds, slag and kiln furniture from the early 19th-century Newbigging Pottery. It is considered possible that further examples of this type of pit, or waster scatter, may survive in the eastern part of the development area.
