Archaeology Notes

NO03SE 46 0859 3250.

A small ring-ditch was identified as a cropmark from the air by pilots from Perth Aerodrome, between the dismantled railway and the road leading off the A9 to Newmill Cottages.

M D King 1992.

Cropmarks on aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1992) have revealed two further possible ring-ditches in an area to the SW of the previously recorded ring-ditch, between the dismantled railway and the loop for the A9 at NO 0853 3248.

Information from RCAHMS (RHM) 6 February 1996.

Activities

Magnetometry (21 October 2013 - 22 November 2013)

Aside from the occasional ferrous ‘spike’ anomalies and discrete anomalies caused by natural variation in the composition of the soils and superficial deposit only a single curving trend anomaly, interpreted as agricultural in origin, has been identified in this area. No anomalies

of archaeological potential have been identified although a small cropmark ring ditch is recorded immediately east of the survey area.

Information from Archaeological Services WYAS, November 2013.
