NN72SE 77 7734 2036 to 7730 2054.
The cropmark of an old road has been identified from air photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995) running across two fields immediately to the E of Tullichettle farmsteading. The road is depicted on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1978) running from Ruchilside to Tullichettle Lodge. It continues as a cropmark from NN 7730 2055 for a distance of 160m before it turns to the SE and runs to the field edge where it resumes as a field boundary. This section of the road was removed before 1866, as it is not depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Perthshire 1866, sheet xciv). It intersects the cropmarks of a presumably much earlier pit-defined cursus recorded in the same field (NN72SE 79).
