Full Description

One of two sets of postholes/pits recorded during observation of the Dingwall to Invergordon pipeline. They appeared as brown loamy sand smears set into the gravel subsoil. Shovel scraping of both sets of features proved them to be very nebulous, none of the features being more than 100mm deep. <1>
