Description

A walkover survey was carried out by John Wombell, Anne Coombs and other members of the North of Scotland Archaeological Society in 2013 to assess the landscape of Dirr Wood to find any connection between the land and a then recently discovered Bronze Age hoard to try and contextualise the finds. The survey was carried out over several days in March and April but the majority of sites were recorded suring a 2.5 day period over the 5th and 6th of April. <1> For more information on these sites, please see the appropriate documentation attached.
