Abstract:		 A trial trenching evaluation was undertaken along the route of the Balmedie to Tipperty section (Lot 1) of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie-Tipperty. A total of 591 trial trenches were excavated and following trench extensions requested by the consultant the evaluated area amounted to 29,560m². The majority of the features identified related to post-improvement agriculture and largely consisted of field drains. Evidence of earlier agricultural activity was apparent in the form of vestigial cultivation furrows. Three areas were identified where mitigation measures were considered appropriate. These were targeted on: an area where two small pits, one containing prehistoric lithics and pottery were identified; an area where a pit containing bog iron ore was identified; and another area where a small pit of anthropogenic origin was identified.
