Description
An archaeological metal detecting survey and watching brief were undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group in 2011-12 on ground breaking works associated with the construction of a hydro scheme and associated infrastructure at Coillie Diobhain, Keppoch, Roybridge. These archaeological works were undertaken along the full extent of the proposed development, due to proximity of the Battle of Mulroy which took place in 1688. No significant archaeological features, deposits or artefacts were encountered. <1>
