Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a programme of additional geophysical (magnetometer) survey, Metal detecting survey and trial trenching, covering approximately 8 hectares at Killicrankie in response to a request from Historic Environment Scotland (HES) that additional investigations are undertaken to inform their understanding of the potential impacts of the A9 Dualling Programme: Killiecrankie to Glen Garry on the site of the Battle of Killiecrankie (Ref BLT12), fought on the 27th July 1689. The additional surveys are located either side of the existing A9 and on either side of Urrard House, which is thought to have been at the core of the fighting. The Geophysical survey has not identified any anomalies of definite archaeological potential with the magnetic datasets mainly identifying anomalies consistent with near-surface geological variation. A single high magnitude anomaly has been identified 230m east of Urrard House and interpreted tentatively as a possible large pit. A total of 33 of the 1,432 finds retrieved by the archaeological metal detecting survey possibly relate to the 17th century battle and these comprise lead shot, impacted lead shot, buckles and horseshoes. The trial trenching survey targeted on geophysical anomalies encountered no archaeological features.
