Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological survey works, involving a Desk Based Assessment and Walkover Survey, was undertaken on 11ha of ground for the reopening and expansion to Wester Bleaton Quarry, Kirkmichael, Perthshire (centred NGR: NO 1146 5980). The study area is hill ground consisting of the disused quarry, rough pasture and arable fields. One site, dating to at least the eighteenth century, was noted within the quarry development and was assessed as being a Historic Rural Settlement and of archaeological significance. Rathmell Archaeology has recommended a series of issues that will need to be addressed by the proposed development and outlined a choice of mitigation strategies that may be developed within the context of specific development proposals. These encompass preservation in-situ, excavation, post-excavation analysis and reporting. |
