Abstract:		 Alder Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by the developer to undertake an archaeological evaluation in fields at Horn Farm, Errol in the Carse of Gowrie centred on NGR NO 24565 26004. The evaluation was undertaken in response to the archaeological implications of the development as outlined in the Terms of Reference supplied by Perth and Kinross Heritage Trust. Prehistoric settlements have been recorded by aerial photographic survey on gravel subsoil to the immediate south of the development area. The work took place during the period 20-21 April 2017 in good weather conditions. The evaluation was located over the area of new build and comprised a sample of 10% of that area. The site revealed topsoil to an average depth of 0.30-0.40m over stiff light brown carse clay which overlay assorted weathered stone in a matrix of clay. Numerous field drains were found crossing the site testifying to the historic bogginess of these low lying fields due to underlying carse clay. Of interest was a medieval jug or pot handle, a stray find and a feature comprising a modern tile drain set alongside an earlier stone slab field drain. Nothing of archaeological significance was found that could relate to prehistoric or later periods and Alder Archaeology considers that no further archaeological work is required on this site.
