Full Description
A flint scatter, comprising around 600 microliths, was recovered from a fairly small area by the late Dr Grieve in 1983. The NGR provided plots the site on the old route of the A93, which is presumably incorrect. The site could be slightly to the north, between the old and new routes of the A93, or to the east, where flints were found sometime before 1944 (NO69NE0001).
