Abstract: |
AOC Archaeology undertook an archaeological evaluation in relation to a proposed housing development at Lathro Farm, Milnathort, Perth and Kinross (NGR: NO 1125 0390). The evaluation required a 5% trenching sample of the proposed 7 hectare development area. The development is situated on arable land associated with the category C listed building of Lathro Farm which dates to the 18th and 19th centuries. Trenching revealed predominant drift geology of glacial till with outcrops of sandstone. These deposits were cut by occasional 19th century rubble drains and revealed heavy plough scars. The natural was overlain by a shallow improved plough soil. No archaeologically significant features were revealed during the evaluation. Occasional sherds of 19th century ceramics were observed within the former plough soil. Given the nature of the archaeological features and the level of recording undertaken no further works are considered necessary. |
