Description
NN 613 947 to NN 616 954 An archaeological survey was conducted on 15 December 2006 on behalf of Halcrow Group Ltd acting for Scottish Water to identify and record the nature and extent of any archaeological features likely to be affected by the burial of a water main pipeline above the village of Laggan. Running at a length of 600m, two previously known areas of archaeological interest were identified, and one new area of
archaeological potential (feature 2), thought to be a corn-drying kiln. The archaeologically sensitive areas were clearly marked off and their presence discussed and made known to the client. Their presence did not fall directly into the route of the proposed pipeline, and Scottish Water were advised to avoid the marked
off areas to ensure preservation of the features.
