Kirkdale Archaeology were asked, under the terms of the P.I.C. call-off contract, to monitor the excavation of a cable trench near Iona Abbey. The trench, to be dug by hand by the Historic Scotland squad, lay to the W of the Abbey, following the line of the road, and ran from an existing substation to the Abbey ticket hut.
The work involved such limited disturbance, in an area probably already disturbed by the road construction, that nothing of archaeological significance was noted.
