Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works was required by Kerry Smith Architects on behalf of their client Mr Brian Strachan, in support of the erection of a new house on land 60m to the southeast of 4 Westbank Holdings, Longforgan, Perth and Kinross (NGR: NO 3103 2975) (Planning app: 14/02007/IPL). Condition 4 of planning consent required a programme of archaeological works to assess the presence/absence of archaeological remains within the proposed development site. If archaeological deposits are recovered, the results of this evaluation can then be used to develop a strategy for preservation of any surviving remains, either in situ or by record. The proposed area for development is situated on the southwest outskirts of Longforgan and considered to have archaeological potential. It is situated nearby the centre of Longforgan, an historic settlement, dating back at least to the Pictish period, as evidenced by finds of a Pictish symbol stone and prehistoric souterrains. |
