A desk based assessment and walkover survey was undertaken by Guard Archaeology between the 1st and 2nd of April, 2019 of an area proposed for afforestation at Loch Glow in Perth & Kinross.

The assessment indicates that there are nine known cultural heritage sites within the area proposed for afforestation that could potentially be directly affected by the proposal. These consist of a prehistoric fort, a possible cairn, two boundary stones, a shieling hut, a farmstead, two buildings and field banks. None of these sites is designated and all are of regional, local or lesser cultural heritage significance. A further 18 cultural heritage sites, including one Scheduled Monument, one Conservation Area and one Inventory Garden and Designed Landscape, are located within the surrounding 1 km buffer. One previous archaeological assessment has been carried out within 1 km of the Site.
