The Scottish Urban Archaeological Trust
Background
In the early days of the Trust's existence, large parts of its work was funded through a combination of Manpower Services Commission schemes and funding from SDD Ancient Monuments.[2] After local authorities were reorganised in the 1990s, including the appointment of local-authority archaeologists, the funding for the monitoring project was brought to an end.[2] SUAT shifted its work to concentrate on developed-funded archaeology, along with undertaking funded research projects from Historic Scotland's (now Historic Environment Scotland) archaeology programme.[2]

In 1997, when proposals were made to dismantle and rebuild the eastern wall of
burn, which ran along the burial ground's southern wall, was covered with soil.[3]
