Full Description

A small scatter of flint chips was exposed under peat beside a quad bike track 20m S of Loch an Tairt. No settlement remains are visible in the vicinity. Limited excavation suggested this was a discrete deposit on a small mound, almost certainly retouch, from at least three separate tools. <1>

NGR moved from 244600 833380 to better reflect position as seen on photographs and description in report [IS-L 01/05/2015].
