Description

A watching-brief was conducted on behalf of Scottish & Southern Energy Plc by Stuart Farrell for the installation of a cabin and electricity supply for a communications mast being constructed on Muir of Ord Hill. The objectives were to monitor the ground works to record those archaeological deposits of features uncovered, or those that cannot be preserved in situ as result of the work. Weather on the days of work was overcast with sunny periods with occasional showers. The monitoring revealed no archaeological features or deposits. <1>
