A dig team, led by Perth and Kinross Heritage Trust and Tay Landscape Partnership (TayLP) with support from AOC Archaeology and a host of fantastic volunteers undertook the excavations. This dig revealed some amazing large fort defense walls, made from large stone blocks \u2013 perfect for modelling a Minecraft world\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Minecraft Build<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Moncrieffe Hill was created as part of the Tay Landscape Partnership\u2019s UNEARTH The Mystery of Prehistory festival in Perth City 2015. It took the team at ImmersiveMinds over 4 weeks to complete and is, to date, the largest heritage build they have undertaken. While the historical emphasis was on Moredun Top Fort, Moncrieffe Hill itself had to be recreated in its entirety. As with all Crafting the Past Minecraft builds, the landscape was created at 1:1 scale and topographically accurate, using data from a variety of GiS ported in to Minecraft. From there, Moredun Top Fort was recreated on this hill from archaeological drawings and discussions with the team at the TayLP. Areas of interest brought to digital life focused on typical fort structures -roundhouses, farmland and of course, the iconic defence walls.<\/p>\n<p>A multi user minecraft server is available server is available at turret.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk port 9001.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DOWNLOADS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/taylp.openvirtualworlds.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Perth.zip\">Explore the Hillfort! <\/a> \u2013<\/strong> <a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/taylp.openvirtualworlds.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Perth.zip\">Download<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Download this zip file to explore Moredun Top Hillfort \u2013 for use on PC\/MAC\/Linux<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/taylp.openvirtualworlds.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/PerthRuin.zip\">Excavate the ruined Hillfort!
