Archaeology Notes

At least 7 concrete 'dragons teeth' lie within the sand dunes behind Ravensheugh Sands on the banks of a small burn. One sits on the south bank, four lie within the stream bed and are displaced and two lie in the sand dunes to the north, half obscured by sand and grass. More may lie under the sand in the dunes.

Site recorded by GUARD during the Coastal Assessment Survey for Historic Scotland, 'The Firth of Forth from Dunbar to the Coast of Fife' 17th February 1996.
