Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation and topographic survey were carried out with local community volunteers to investigate the World War I practice entrenchments in Plean Country Park, Stirling. A walkover survey was followed by excavation and topographic survey. The survey recorded networks of trenches extending over an area c 100m north/south by 60m east/west , with some portions well-defined and others much more amorphous. Three exploratory trenches revealed very shallow profiles in the western part of the network (Trenches 2 and 3) and a deep practice trench in the eastern part (Trench 1). The later use of the area for World War II practice trenches and quarrying appears to have led to some disturbance of the World War I trenches and the formation of a complex set of extant earthworks. No artefactual evidence of World War I activity was found.
