摘要：This report presents the results of a historic building survey and archaeological watching brief undertaken between 1998 and 2001 during restoration work (undertaken as part of the Scottish Dance Base development) on the Flodden Wall running between Edinburgh’s Grassmarket and Johnston Terrace. The Flodden Wall is the name given to the 16th-century extension of the capital’s town defences, traditionally seen as having been constructed in the months following the defeat at Flodden in 1513 (Illus 1).
