Aerial Photography (4 August 2022)
Out of Fife to Angus. Infrequent late season colouring led to recording several new sites in the area. Back to Fife via Perthshire where some cropmarks were observed too.

Aerial Photographic Interpretation (15 February 2023)
A broad scattering of pits has been recorded as cropmarking on oblique aerial photographs (HESAP 2022) across two fields to the E of Fisherhills farmstead. The majority are of geological origin but among these a number of well-defined pits, measuring about 3m in diameter, that may represent archaeological features.
