Archaeology Notes

NO04SW 232 007 411

NO 007 411 In woodland 360m NE of Tomgarrow Farmhouse and 20m S of the track, the remains of two buildings. Building A: 4 x 13m with walls up to 1m high. The building is aligned NW-SE with a doorway facing E.

Building B: 6m to the E of A is a building 9 x 4m with walls up to 1m high aligned E-W with a S-facing doorway.

Immediately S of building B are two stones 7m apart and aligned E-W.

Stone A, the westernmost, is 1.2 x 1.2 x 0.4m, flat-topped and narrowest of the two, with its broad face aligned a few degrees from E-W.

Stone B is 1.4m high has a pointed top and rounded body. As the characteristics of the stones are similar to other 'Perthshire pairs' there is a possibility they may fall into this category.
