2 Map 7: Barns Ness to Thorntonloch From the low-lying headland of Barns Ness, this section extends along an undulating coast edge to Chapel Point and Skateraw and from there, around the armoured headland occupied by Torness power station and on to the sandy beach at Thorntonloch. There are sand dunes in the hinterland throughout much of this area and the coast edge has been classified as generally stable, with some localised accretion and erosion also in evidence. Modern settlement is very sparse within this area and is mostly concentrated around Thorntonloch, where there is also a caravan park. A total of twenty-four sites are recorded, of which six represent new entries identified by this survey. Of note is a site comprising of eroding anthropogenic deposits, including probable medieval white gritty pottery, at Chapel Point (EL50). Previous records (EL149) indicate that human remains have been found here in the past and the place name suggests that there is an early chapel in the vicinity. These remains require urgent attention. Other sites in this area include a lighthouse at Barns Ness (EL145), and an abandoned harbour (EL54) and recently-consolidated lime kiln (EL53) at Skateraw 93

There is storm beach over mush of the upper foreshore on the eastern end of the section, which appears to be accreting. The edge above this foreshore exhibits signs of erosion, particularly over the eastern half of the section. The coast edge on the western half is sandy, and accreting. 2.

10 Map 8: Thorntonloch to Cove Harbour This map section begins at Thorntonloch with a low-lying coast edge and a sandy beach. From approximately the mid point of this beach, the coast edge rises, achieving a height of c. 35m for most of the remainder of the section. The river valleys at Bilsdean and Dunglass punctuate this otherwise high coast edge until Cove Harbour, with its bay surrounded by cliff, is reached. The high rocky cliffs are largely stable, but localised areas of erosion were noted at Thorntonloch Sands, Lawfield beach and at Bilsdean Creek. Modern settlement at Thorntonloch and Dunglass is limited and largely set back from the coastal zone. Of the eighteen sites recorded in this area, three represent new entries. At Lawfield, eroding deposits seen in a coastal exposure (EL56) appear to derive from industrial waste, although their date and origin could not be confirmed. Further eroding deposits, seen by Dunglass Burn (SB2) contain charcoal and animal bone in what would appear to be washed-down alluvium deposits. Several sites in this area, including a possible fort and pit alignments, have been identified from AP's (EL160, EL163, EL169, EL170). Past records also note finds and burial remains at Castle Dykes (EL163), suggesting that there may be a concentration of prehistoric activity in this area. These site are not now visible on the ground but it is possible that buried remains associated with them may yet survive. 101

15 Erosion Class 1. Lawfield NT km Stable The coast edge in this section is composed of high steeply sloping or near vertical grassy cliffs. There are very occasional areas of erosion, however these are localised and limited to exposures which are less than 10m in length. These exposures are generally high on the cliff sides and do not appear to have been caused by wave action or other coastal processes. It is conjectured that they are the result of slippage of steep areas of soil, perhaps caused by factors such as rabbit burrowing and heavy rain. 2. Birnieknowes NT km Definitely Eroding The coast edge here is definitely eroding. Fresh exposures are visible and the tallards of soil visible elsewhere have been removed by coastal processes.

18 Map 9: Cove Harbour to Siccar Point From Cove Harbour, the Southern Uplands run to the coast edge to form high coastal cliffs of 50m and more in height surrounding the headland of Hawk's Heugh. Dropping back at Pease Bay, with its expansive, armoured sandy beach, the cliff edge again rises to the east and increases in height from Pealands Banks to the end of this section at Siccar Point. Modern settlement is sparse and concentrated on the lower ground around Pease Bay. The hinterland is divided in a combination of arable and rough grazing land. Of the fourteen sites recorded here, all had been reported previously. At Hawk's Heugh there is a concentration of probable WWII remains associated with a radar station (SB5), although dense vegetation here acts as an impediment to site visibility. St. Helen's Church and graveyard (SB6) stand now in isolation behind the cliffs at Old Cambus and are in a poor condition. The graveyard is overgrown and no trace could be found of the hogback gravestones which have been recorded here previously. The remains of a promontory fort are located on Siccar Point (SB7) and this elevated position was again used during WWII, probably as a look-out (SB8). 109
