Description
Field survey by West Coast Archaeological Services at High Pasture Cave in 2004 included the detailed planning of the surface structures, mainly in the core area of the site, including a group of stonebuilt structures which may be contemporary with the archaeological deposits in the passages below. A wider landscape survey of surface features relative to the cave was also conducted (though this is not reported on in the report for the 2004 season). <1>
