Abstract: |
ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd were commissioned by RTS Ltd to undertake an archaeological walkover survey associated with the formation of a forestry track on land to the west of Buckieburn located on the southern edge of the Stirling Council area. The track is required in order to facilitate the harvesting of existing forestry plantations south of the Buckieburn Resevoir. An archaeological planning condition was placed upon the development due to the proximity of a Scheduled Monument, Dundaff Hill Prehistoric Cairn and an unenclosed settlement recorded during survey work associated with the planting of the existing trees in the early 1990s. This survey did not provide accurate co-ordinates for the settlement remains and there was a concern that these may extend into the development area. An archaeological walkover survey was completed along the route of the roadway. This was to confirm features associated with known sites did not extend into the development area, although it also recorded any previously unknown features along the length of the development. The walkover survey failed to reveal any significant archaeological features along the length of the development. However, due to the proximity of the Scheduled Monument on Dundaff Hill, ARCHAS Ltd recommend further archaeological mitigation in this area. R Cameron 2016 |
