NH 57547 52662 A walkover survey of Mullans Wood, in advance of remedial woodland works was undertaken on 26 June 2017 to locate and assess the large number of potential burial cairns, clearance cairns and hut circles recorded during previous archaeological survey. The majority of the sites were located. Some were not visible due to windfall, brash and dense vegetation in places. Others have been removed due to the quarrying and storage activities on part of the site. It was recommended that buffer zones are employed around the archaeological sites during all work associated with the felling and restocking of the woodland.
