This publication sets out the results of all archaeological investigations undertaken by GUARD Archaeology Limited during these most recent investigations at Cambuskenneth Abbey (September 2015). Investigations on the Watergate and harbour revealed a surprisingly intact medieval stonebuilt structure on the edge of the Forth, and material recovered during the work included animal bone, medieval and later pottery, ceramic building materials (CBM), clay pipe, metal objects and glass. This project was conducted on behalf of the IFLI who had secured funding for a range of eligible projects in the Inner Forth Area in 2015.
