Location formerly entered as NN 775 208.
NN 7759 2088 (centred on) A watching brief was conducted on groundworks associated with a new build extension to a dwelling house at 14 Landside Drive, Comrie. The house and garden lay adjacent to a Roman marching camp of presumed Agricolan date, and 100m from a previous evaluation (SUAT 2005) that had resulted in evidence of a possible annexe to one of two later forts alongside the camp. The camp and forts collectively constituted a scheduled monument (SAM 1612). In this context it was thought possible that the groundworks might expose archaeological data; however, in the event nothing of archaeological interest resulted.
