Archaeology Notes

NO42SW 101 419 215

A programme of archaeological survey works was undertaken in May 2004 on 1.6ha of ground to be quarried. Several quarrying features, both 19th and 20th century, and tracks were noted within the extension, but were not assessed as being of archaeological significance.

Outwith the extension, a possible cairn, 12m in diameter and 1m high, formed of small to medium angular stones, stands on the summit of Lucklaw Hill (NO 4189 2162). This cairn is surmounted by a modern brick rubble cairn raised from the demolition debris from the nearby concrete slab structure.

Report to be lodged with Fife SMR.
