Description
A walkover survey was carried out by Archaeology North on land to the east of Camore Wood, Dornoch, in 2011 following a desk-based assessment of existing records in advance of proposals for a possible quarry at the site. No remains later than the C19 were found within the footprint of the proposed quarry. A preliminary assessment of the impact of the proposed quarry on the cultural heritage resource identified two major adverse impacts, and six moderate to major adverse impacts. <1>
