NO 0698 2568 to NO 1260 2140 The preliminary assessment of the archaeological implications of the proposed Perth Floods Prevention Scheme involved an initial site walk-over and desk-based assessment, which did not identify any new archaeological sites, followed by a series of field evaluations.
NO 1190 2390 Four trenches were machine-excavated in the S part of the North Inch on the path of a proposed embankment. All deposits were modern in origin and related to landscaping. No evidence of medieval land-use was recovered from this historically open space.
