NN 942 584 An evaluation was carried out in November 2004 in advance of housing development in the immediate vicinity of a late prehistoric defensive settlement or homestead (NN95NW 22), located on the site of the present Castlebeigh Hotel. Four trenches were excavated by machine, amounting to 4% (145m2) of the development area. A dump of cobbles was uncovered in one trench. The stones formed no structure, nor did they appear to have been carefully laid to form a platform or surface. No datable evidence was recovered from this feature. No other features of archaeological interest were identified.
Report lodged with Perth and Kinross SMR and the NMRS.
