Yarrows, Caithness.

This project, in partnership with the Caithness Archaeology Trust (CAT), was designed to record in detail the archaeological landscape around the Loch of Yarrows. Monuments that were recorded range in type from chambered tombs and standing stones to limekilns and harbours, and in date from the Neolithic to the Second World War. Among the new discoveries are several burial cairns and a setting of stone rows. All the monuments were surveyed using global positioning system (GPS) technology, and the opportunity was taken at three of the sites to use this technology to further develop the methodology for producing three-dimensional digital terrain models (DTMs).
