Abstract:		 Scottish Water commissioned SUAT Ltd to undertake an archaeological watching brief in Kirkgate, Perth on 23rd, 29th and 30th January 2008. The work consisted of monitoring the excavation of a sewage pipe trench in the middle of the street and recording the exposed trench sections. The sections revealed a sequence of well-preserved medieval midden rich in leather, bone, wood and pottery which dated to the 12th-15th centuries. The west facing sections showed the midden to be separated by thin gravel layers. These layers are interpreted as either episodes of street resurfacing or possibly the forelands to buildings which would have lined Kirkgate. The watching brief recovered a medieval barrel lock and a copper alloy buckle with a foliage-type decorated buckle plate. The SUAT site code was PEX170.
