Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief on topsoil stripping and excavation required for a house extension at The Gardens, Delvine, Spittalfield. The site is located within the defensive outworks of the Roman Fortress of Inchtuthil and covered an area of 96m². Along with modern pottery three sherds of late medieval/post-medieval pottery and three sherds of what were considered to be Roman pottery were recovered from garden deposits. Cuts in the subsoil/natural revealed recent working as part of a garden vegetable plot. A stone floor or surface was found that was tied into the foundation of the house wall and was considered to be a stance for an outside tap. Although some medieval and possibly Roman pottery sherds were found no discrete features or deposits relating to these periods or any other period, apart from modern, were found. |
