Scope and Content This 86-page document, dated March 2006, is the data structure report relating to the 2005 excavations of the Tarbat Discovery Programme. It comprises a 24-page report, with 6 appendices in a further 62 pages. It covered a much larger area than the preceding season, aimed at wide-scale recording and overhead photography of an 8th to 9th century monastic workshops zone, and a stone-built road serving it and other buildings. One such structure may have been concerned with leather- or vellum-working, with associated tanning tanks and yard. One significant find was a small bone stylus. A group of three cist burials was also discovered. Centred on NH 915 840
