Old photograph of Clatchard Craig near Newburgh, Fife, Scotland. The Pictish hill fort of Clatchard Craig was located on a hill of the same name by the River Tay. A human presence on the site has been identified from the neolithic period onward and the fort itself was occupied from the sixth century AD until at least the eighth century. It stood close to several places which were centres of secular and religious power during the early Middle Ages including Abernethy,Forteviot, Scone and Moncreiffe in Perthshire. As such it seems to have been an important stronghold of the Picts. In the late twentieth century Clatchard Craig was entirely destroyed by quarrying for aggregate authorised by the British Ministry of Transport.
