NS93NE 91 c.974 362
NS 974 362 An archaeological investigation was carried out in advance of the construction of a telecommunications mast. The investigation identified three sub-circular features full of stone, which have been interpreted as stone-packed post-holes. The two larger post-holes shared very similar characteristics in size, form and the types of fills they contained. No direct dating evidence was available for any of these features. However they are of some antiquity, and the recovery of a hammerstone from the fill of one of them may point to a prehistoric date.
Full report lodged with the NMRS.
