Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained during topsoil stripping in advance of extraction at Powmyre Sand and Gravel Quarry, Glamis in order to satisfy a condition of the planning consent. An area of 150m by 50m was stripped during this phase of work. A total of three isolated archaeological features were identified. These consisted of a posthole, a hearth and a probable trough filled with material characteristic of a ''burnt mound''. Two of the features contained fragments of prehistoric pottery and lithics and these add further to a growing record of prehistoric and early historic remains from earlier phases of monitoring at this site. |
