Archaeological Evaluation (28 January 2010)
Alder Archaeology undertook an archaeological evaluation on the site of a proposed new house and associated drainage on the southern side of East Inchmichael Farm, Errol Perth and Kinross. The requirement was to evaluate 5% of the development area. Special attention was to be paid to any features or deposits relating to settlement of the later prehistoric period and the Pictish period that had been identified from aerial photography directly to the W of the farm (Scheduled Monument 7199). Two trenches, each measuring 11 X 2m, were excavated, revealing relatively deep estuarine deposits with land drainage dating from the medieval period to the present day. Two sherds of medieval pottery and modern bovine remains were recovered. Nothing relating to the buried features of the Scheduled Monument to the W of East Inchmichael Farm were identified.
