Watching Brief (13 February 2001 - March 2001)

NT27SE 4617 c.234 736

NT 274 736 A watching brief was carried out in February and March 2001 during excavations to examine the culvert between Hunter's Bog and St Margaret's Loch, located at the W end of the Lang Rig in Holyrood Park. The culvert was seen to be constructed from stone slabs (caps and sides), and clearly still in good working order, with water running freely within it.
