Watching Brief (July 2000)
A watching-brief was conducted on behalf of George Gibson, Building Contractor for a house plot and associated features being constructed at Rennyhills Farm near Kilrenny, Fife.
The area of the watching brief lies adjacent to a right of way and a number of recorded sites, most notably the Skeith Stone at NO 5708/0464. The village of Kilrenny currently predominantly dates to the 18th century, though it was made a burgh of regality prior to 1672. It is possible that a settlement existed here in the 7th or 8th century, probably religious around the site of the present church at the East side of the village.
