LOOKING AT CALTON HILL HISTORY IN MORE DEPTH

Submitted by Editor on

The Calton Hill Conservation Trust has arranged a series of events for locals looking at the archaeological potential of the area.

 

The project will be run by the Edinburgh branch of Headland Archaeology (HA). It will look into the human history of the Hill, about which little is known before building of the old observatory house in 1776.

 

A photogrammetric survey from the air took place using a drone on 15 January.
