Description

A rapid walk-over archaeological survey of the proposed WGS area was requestied by Tilhill Forestry Ltd. The purpose of this survey was to identify areas of archaeological interest and to suggest appropriate measures to protect the identified remains. An initial deskbound survey was carried out on available maps held by Highland Council Archive Service. This was followed by a site visit carried out on the 26th November 1997. It was carried out in dry relatively mild conditions allowing the majority of the area to be examined. <1>
