Archaeology Notes

NT27SE 4332 2595 7352

NT 2595 7351 A N-S aligned open sandstone drain with associated dolerite cobbled surface was exposed in the

basement of the above property during renovation works in June 1998. The drain was preserved in situ and not excavated, although it was seen to truncate an earlier cobbled surface. The remains are likely to be early post-medieval in date and relate to Marlin's Wynd, buried following the construction of Blair Street and associated buildings in the late 18th century.
