Field Visit (15 July 2019 - 9 October 2019)
A historic environment assessment was undertaken by Rathemll Archaeology between 15th July 2019 and 9th October 2019, to inform a proposed planting scheme at Dall, near Struan, Perth & Kinross. A desk-based assessment and walkover survey was designed to establish a sound baseline on the historic environment within the landholding and to make recommendations on its management. The findings of the assessment and survey are presented in this report.
Five historic environment sites were identified and are considered within this report These are: three cairns, a field boundary and an offcut section of an 18th century Military Road.
Based on the evidence gathered for this assessment, positive management has been recommended to safeguard the field boundary and 18th century military road.
