Abstract:
An archaeological walk over survey, rapid assessment and characterisation of the historic woodland and a dendrochronological study of three tree specimens all in Killearn Glen, next to Killearn Village, Stirlingshire was carried out as part of the 'Killearn Glen: Rediscovering the Communities' Lost Landscape Project'. The work was carried out on various dates between 10th April and 8th May 2016 with members of the local community and Killearn Community Futures Company (KCFC) archive group. The work was carried out on behalf of KCFC and complements a wider body of community engagement being undertaken by Green Aspirations Scotland CIC. Twelve new archaeological sites were identified throughout the woodland by the walk over survey, spanning the Late Medieval to Modern periods. The woodland survey transect confirmed that the woodland in Killearn Glen is remarkably diverse in tree age, form and species. The dendrochronology identified Scots Pine and Yew that date to the late 18th or early 19th centuries, and a coppiced oak that was last cut in the inter-war period - providing clues to the management of the woodland over the past two hundred years.
