A programme of archaeological works was required by Perth and Kinross Council in advance of a proposed extension to the existing school building, by AOC Archaeology Group at Dunning Primary School, Dunning, Perthshire. In total an area 30 m east to west by between 9-13 m north to south was stripped by machine excavation. The ditch feature was aligned east to west and measured 30 m in length by up to 3.20 m in width and 1.20 m in depth. Seventy-five percent of the feature was excavated, producing a flint arrowhead and blade. A second, contemporary ditch was identified aligned north to south, running in to the feature. No other significant archaeological features or artefacts were encountered. OASIS: aocarcha1-28634
