East Pilmore is a timber building located in Perthshire, Scotland, situated approximately 150 metres to the east-southeast of the main settlement. The structure is protected by Historic Environment Scotland under the reference SM6464, recognising its significance within the archaeological record of the region.
The monument stands upon bedrock of the Arbuthnott-Garvock Group, geological deposits formed during the Pragian period. This underlying stratum comprises sandstone as the dominant lithology, with subordinate layers of conglomerate, siltstone and mudstone. Such geological foundations would have provided the natural base for construction across this part of Perthshire during the period of the building's occupation.
Timber buildings of this type represent an important phase of settlement in medieval and early modern Scotland. The preservation of structural remains at East Pilmore, despite the perishable nature of timber, offers evidence for domestic or agricultural building practices and landscape use in the region. The monument's protected status reflects its value in understanding patterns of habitation and resource exploitation within Perthshire's archaeological heritage.
