Activities

Watching Brief (23 July 2013)

Perth and Kinross Heritage Trust commissioned Alder Archaeology Ltd to carry out a watching brief in advance of the installation of Caithness slabs under the gate swings at Muthill Old Church. Muthill Old Church and raveyard is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and therefore consent for this work has been granted by Historic Scotland. The archaeological conditions of this consent specify that a watching brief be carried out on any groundworks.

The watching brief (Alder site code MQ01) took place on 23rd July 2013. A series of earlier surfaces for the entranceway were identified though the majority of these were modern. The earliest phase represented a cobbled surface that pre-dated the construction of the archway. No finds were uncovered to aid in dating of this feature. The groundworks for the slab

installation have been completed and no further work will be carried out as part of this project.
