Abstract:		 This Desk-Based Assessment (DBA) was completed in advance of a woodland creation scheme at Rynachulaig, on the north side of Loch Tay, east of Killin. The DBA and walkover survey identified 32 heritage assets within the boundaries of the scheme, nine of which were previously unrecorded by the HER and NRHE. Eleven cup marked stones have been recorded within the study area. These are likely to date to the Neolithic and are located on prominent locations. Their function is unknown, but they may have been territorial markers. These stones vary significantly in size, sometimes displaying just one cup mark, while others have up to 21 cups recorded. The cup marks are simple, weathered and ephemeral, but almost all sit within prominent positions in the landscape, overlooking Loch Tay. One previously unrecorded cup marked stone was recorded during the walkover survey. The remainder of the heritage assets recorded in the DBA primarily relate to exploitation of the landscape for farming, possibly from the medieval period onwards, but the surviving evidence more likely dates from the post-medieval into the early modern periods. The DBA recommends that the planting design is modified to ensure that heritage assets are avoided and left in situ with appropriate buffer zones maintained. These assets will be suitably delineated by qualified heritage professionals prior to planting work commencing. All staff operating on site will also be comprehensively briefed on the likelihood and nature of surviving archaeological deposits through a detailed toolbox talk.
