An archaeological trial trenching evaluation was conducted for four new house sites on the land 100m S of the Croft House, Brae of Kinkell, south of Dingwall. The trial trenching arose as an outline planning condition from the Highland Council Planning Department prior to development of the site. Sixteen features were recorded during the trial trenching, and include field drains, modern services, clearance cairns, ploughmarks and two features of unknown use. Out of the six features which were of archaeological interest, one was a Post Medieval farmstead located outside of NW boundary of the development site and is not under threat by the development. The remaining five features, ploughmarks, the remains of a possible stone structure and one pit, were excavated and recorded.
