NC 491 042 (centre) An archaeological assessment of a forested area was undertaken in August 2005 as part of an EIA for a proposed windfarm. No sites were identified in the course of the desk-based assessment. The walkover survey was limited to rides and other areas clear of forestry. A single possible site was identified: a partially overgrown mound of stones, 4.2 x 2 x 1.5m (NC 49465 03570). The mound was surrounded by a post-and-wire fence, presumably placed to protect it, but local enquiries yeilded no information. The mound may represent a cairn.
Report lodged with Highland SMR.

This site was visited in 2011 and a 20 metre exclusion zone established, marked out with orange plastic mesh fencing, to avoid accidental damage during felling operations. <2>
