Activities

Archaeological Evaluation (1 March 2010 - 31 August 2011)

A programme of works was carried out by CFA Archaeology Ltd prior to and during alterations at 52-54 High Street, Haddington on behalf East Lothian Council. These included a Historic Building Appraisal, an Evaluation and Watching Brief, a Building Survey, and a second Watching Brief which included further building recording. Pre-construction engineering and archaeological test-pits revealed historic walls and cobbled surfaces. Internal monitoring during construction revealed further elements of the historic building fabric, these included domestic fireplaces predating the use of the structure as a grain store. A pit and a well were recorded. External monitoring recorded the truncated walls of a building which were associated with 18-19 century ceramics and which may underlie the Grain Store.
