Description
An archaeological survey of this farm was commissioned by the owner, Mr Graham Grant. The farm lies within the Cairngorm Straths ESA. The purpose of this survey was to supply information on the surviving archaeological remains and discuss the requirements necessary to protect this archaeology under the ESA scheme and the options for enhanced management. An initial desk-based search was carried out in Highland Council Sites & Monuments Record at Clachnaharry and at Highland Council Archive in Inverness. This was followed by a field survey on 12th March. A second visit was carried out on the 5th June after a site meeting with Mr Graham Grant. Unfortunately the weather on both visits was either misty or raining, restricting the quality of any photographs taken. <1>
