Description
A DBA and walkover survey were carried out by AOC Archaeology Group in January 2005 in advance of a proposed wind farm development project at Achany, near Lairg, Sutherland. No significant archaeological remains were discovered during the walkover survey. The site is very exposed and lies at a higher elevation than most of the known archaeological sites in the surrounding area which may potential explain the lack of features. No listed buildings or scheduled monuments were located on the proposed wind farm site. <1>
