Abstract:		 Watching Brief carried out on land onto which quarry is to expand. A single pit, Pit [13] may be the earliest feature encountered. It may be prehistoric in origin. A similar pit (F2330) containing burnt quartz fragments and charcoal was excavated at Looe Mills Farm (NGR SX 229649) some 700m to the east during the construction of the Dobwalls Bypass. This produced Early Bronze Age Beaker pottery (Richards 2010). The ditches [1] and [7] seem to define a square or rectilinear field (Fig 3) that bears no relation to and may predate the current field pattern which is of medieval or post-medieval origin. Unfortunately no direct dating evidence was obtained from either ditch, and neither appears on any of the historical maps consulted in the course of this project. There is a possibility that these may be prehistoric in origin. No other features of archaeological interest were seen over the area of the site, and no artefacts were collected. It was concluded that the development had very little or no impact on any significant buried remains apart from those noted above.
