A watching brief was conducted in August 2005 on the opening of ditches for an access ramp and a drain at Little Dunkeld Church (NO04SW 26.01). The digging revealed material redeposited in recent times, as indicated by 19th/20th-century finds. The presence of two human teeth can be explained by bioturbation or by accidental cutting of a grave.

Archive to be deposited in NMRS.

Sponsor: Congregational Board of Dunkeld Parish.
