Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out for Dalgleish Associates, on behalf of their client Laird Brothers in support of the proposed extraction of sands and gravels at Leys of Marlee, Perth and Kinross (centred on NGR: NO 1564 4407). The proposed development area covered three agricultural fields approximately 2km to the west of Blairgowrie. Small portions of these fields have been excluded in the north-west, south-west and north-east corners. The entire area is roughly 500m by 500m, measuring approximately 17.8h area in extent. All the trenches revealed a natural subsoil which varied between a moderately to firmly compacted, silt and sand with moderate to occasional small stone and gravel inclusions across the proposed development site. This varied in colour from mid orange brown, light to mid yellow brown and a mottled yellow brown. In total eight significant features were recorded in trenches 33, 104, 105 and 106. These features would suggest possible prehistoric activity. The recovery of a near Neolithic polished stone axe demonstrates that the area has potential for the recovery of both prehistoric features and artefacts. T Rees 2015
