Abstract:		 excavation and a metal detecting survey undertaken in respect to a proposed residential development on land situated at Wallyford, East Lothian Following the results of previous archaeological evaluations undertaken by CFA Archaeology in 2008 and 2009, three sites (Site ID 1, 8 and 9) (NGR: NT 365 716, NT 369 714 and NT 371 727) within Areas (1 and 4) were identified as having substantial archaeology. The excavation of Site ID 1 revealed more of the 19th century mine workings exposed by the previous evaluation in 2009. This site was until 2012 a Scheduled Monument marked as a supposed prehistoric crop-mark. The current archaeological works and associated map regression identified the site as the remains of a 19th century machine stalk associated with structures exposed in 2009. Site ID 9 revealed a truncated stone platform measuring 12.0 m by 9.0 m and enclosed to the west and south-west by a 'V' shaped ditch. Though of probable prehistoric date, no associated artefacts were obtained during excavation and the date and function of the site remains as yet unknown. Site ID 8 was described as a sunken floored feature. A 50.0 m by 50.0 m area was stripped revealing the substantial remains of a stone built prehistoric roundhouse structure measuring 9.0 m by 12.0 m and partially revetted into the slope. The top-soil strip also revealed the truncated remains of a prehistoric ring-groove roundhouse measuring 9.0 m in diameter. This was located to the south-west of the revetted structure and consisted of a substantial curvilinear ring-groove feature and several internal pit/post-holes. A saddle quern rubber or top-stone was recovered from the fill of the ring-groove. A metal detecting survey was also undertaken within Area 4. This produced 51 objects including a musket ball, a sprigged pistol shot, and two impacted musket balls which are possibly related to the battle of Pinkie (1547).
