Description
A photographic record was made of a ruined crofthouse which was due to be demolished prior to construction of a new house. This was followed by a watching brief during the removal of topsoil and the excavation of a drainage trench. Part of the footings of the demolished crofthouse were encountered and removed during the watching brief, but no features associated with the nearby broch were observed. <1>
