Archaeology Notes

NO12SW 142 1154 2365.

The outer edge of the town ditch was recorded running parallel to Methven Street. The fills of the ditch included a substantial quantity of bovine horn cores, indicating that medieval horn working had taken place in the area. Two properties facing onto the Mill Wynd around the Hal'o'the Wynds House were examined, one of which provided evidence of a mill leat and associated timber structures. (NO12SW 104) Finds included a medieval dress pin some pottery and fragments of textile and leather. They have been placed in Perth Museum.
