Abstract: |
An archaeological investigation was undertaken involving excavation and re-erection of the recently fallen Pitfourie Standing Stone, Moulin, Pitlochry. A trench measuring 3m by 3m was excavated, centred on the stone's socket The standing stone socket was found to be oval in plan, 1.25m by 1.10m by 0.42m deep, packed with sub-angular stones. The stone socket was nearly empty, containing a thin deposit around the packing stones. No further archaeological features were identified. The stone was successfully re-erected following the excavation. S Mitchell 2014. |
