RCAHMS Aerial Survey Programme

Aerial reconnaissance during 2013 benefited from an excellent summer that produced extensive cropmarking along the eastern seaboard, with especially good results in Angus, along the Moray Plain and in parts of Easter Ross. These results included previously unrecorded sites, but the extensive cropmarking also provided a rare opportunity to further record known monuments that have not been seen for many years. The ongoing maritime/marine survey along the west coast focused on the Gairloch to Lochinver area, with a pattern of good returns of features such as fish traps.
