NN 798 473 A 5% archaeological evaluation was conducted on the site of a two-house development approximately 100m E of the stone circle of Croft Moraig. The evaluation uncovered evidence of isolated features mainly interpreted as glacial erratics, with the exception of a curved linear cut feature. One medieval potsherd was recovered. The work was undertaken from 17-18 November and involved the machine stripping of 10 trenches using a mini-digger, and subsequent investigation by hand of any potential archaeological features.

Report to be lodged with NMRS.
