Reconnaissance work in connection with the Millennium-funded Sunart Oakwood Project resulted in the discovery of a number of sites on adjoining estates.
NM 734 630 Parliamentary bridge, Curtis type 1, in poor condition.
Research into the history of the oakwoods is ongoing. Oak trees derived from maiden stems, singled coppice and multi-stemmed neglected coppice occur throughout the woodlands. Very occasional senile pollarded trees suggest an earlier woodland management regime, possibly dating from the late medieval period.
Sponsor: Forest Enterprise Lochaber.
