NS 846 504 An archaeological evaluation was carried out in January 2002 prior to proposed residential redevelopment on a site between Park Street and Union Street, Carluke, in close proximity to the 12th-century ecclesiastical settlement believed to have developed around St Andrew's parish church and its earlier dedication to Saint Luag of Maluag. Three trial trenches were machine-excavated, hand-cleaned and recorded. A cultivation soil or garden soil cut by modern field drains and pits was identified below modern yard surface deposits. No features or deposits relating to medieval or post-medieval occupation of the site were identified.
