NM76SW 29 c.737 621

A full programme of field survey is now reaching completion, and upwards of 1500 sites have been recorded. Several miles of field and wood dykes have been surveyed and most can be equated with those shown on Bald's Estate Plan of 1807. Structures recorded include over 300 recessed platforms, roundhouses, dwellings, byres, shielings, pits, boat slips, wharves and bloomeries. The Parliamentary road of c 1807 and its predecessor have been traced and mapped. Research into archival material confirms an intensive pattern of land use through to modern times, and a complex history of woodland management is now emerging. Sites include:
NM 737 621 Fort.
NM 738 621 Wharf.
NM 737 621 Wharf.
A full list of discoveries is being prepared and will be lodged with the NMRS.
Sponsors: Sunart Oakwoods Research Group, Millennium Forest for Scotland Trust.
