Excavations at Niddry Castle, West Lothian, 1986-90
Excavations at the long cist cemetery on the Hallow Hill, St Andrews, Fife, 1975-7
Excavations west of St Andrews were undertaken from 1975 to 1977, following the discovery of long cists in the garden of a new house on the Hallow Hill.Long cists had been discovered there in 1861, when 20 were opened.The recent excavations revealed a complex of long cists and other graves of an unenclosed burial ground of Early Christian date.Part of the cemetery was loosely organized, while elsewhere the cists were arranged in well-ordered rows…
Aspects of Settlement and Territorial Arrangements in South-east Scotland in the Late Prehistoric and Early Medieval Periods
THIS PAPER IS THE RESULT of research related to long cist cemeteries such as Hallow Hill, Fife1 by E. V. W. Proudfoot and ideas first put forward by C. Aliaga-Kelly in his thesis The Anglo-Saxon Occupation of South-East Scotland.2 Large defended sites, possible oppida, significantly sited on watersheds, may have been key centres in pre-Anglian times. Associations of such sites with other defended settlements and farmsteads are particularly signif…
Place-names and other evidence for Anglian settlement in south-east Scotland
This paper has developed from a study of place- names relating to Edwina Proudfoot's work on the long-cist cemetery at Hallow Hill, Fife, (Proudfoot & Aliaga-Kelly forthcoming 1996a) along with the study of place-name evidence for Old English-speaking, Anglian settlement in Scotland, in Christopher Aliaga-Kelly's thesis ‘The Anglo-Saxon Occupation of South-East Scotland’. In treating the place-names as artefacts in their own right, no correlation…

Camelon native site
NS 863812. Three phases of occupation adjacent to the Roman forts were represented by two successive circular timber houses separated in time by a straight bedding trench. A complex defensive system could not be related to the site sequence, which is apparently of 1st-2nd centuries AD. Pollen suggests hay-meadows

Report on the Excavation of a Bell Barrow in the Parish of Edmondsham, Dorset, England, 1959
The barrow, the excavation of which is described below, is one of the two situated close to the Cranborne-Wimborne road, some 150 yards north of the Avenue Lodge entrance to St Giles' Park, in the parish of Edmondsham, Dorset.—Nat. Grid. Ref. SU 04611155 and SU 04631160, and map (fig. 1, no. 3). The attention of the Ministry of Works was drawn early in 1959 to the denudation by ploughing of Barrow 2. Permission to excavate was given by Lord Shaft…
