Abstract: |
Alder Archaeology was commissioned by the Meikleour Trust to undertake an archaeological evaluation at Hallhole Farm, Meikleour in advance of construction of three grain silos. The site, located at NGR NO 1794 3920 was considered to be archaeologically sensitive due to location adjacent to the SE side of Scheduled Monument (6952) at Coin Hill. The Coin Hill settlement comprises late prehistoric round houses and souterrains. The evaluation required the excavation of 6% of the available area which was achieved by the excavation and recording of three trenches each averaging 5m in length and 2m in width. The work (Alder site code BW04) was undertaken on 11th July 2011 in reasonable weather conditions. The excavations revealed nothing of archaeological significance. In one trench an unworked boulder was encountered which was considered to be an in-situ erratic and not of archaeological interest. The evaluation was entirely funded by the Meikleour Trust. |
