Three trial trenches were opened by Derek Hall Archaeologist and Ceramic Specialist on 26th May 2021 to complete an 8% evaluation of the proposed site of a new house, garage and soakaway. Trench A located the top and face of a stone revetment wall that marks the continuation of a feature located in Trench 4 of SERF’s excavations of 2013. This may represent the early boundary around the Pictish monastery on the site of St Serf’s church. Trenches B and C both located natural gravel and stone at 0.40m below modern ground level nothing of archaeological interest was located. The only find was from Trench A and was half of a glass linen smoother of Post Medieval date.
