NN 8025 4850 An evaluation and watching brief was undertaken 9 March–17 September 2011 during groundworks, including topsoil stripping, on the area of a proposed borrow pit, associated with the construction of the Beauly to Denny 400kV overhead line. The area was considered sensitive due to its proximity to the two standing stone sites at Carse Farm (SAM 1511 and SAM 1539). However, no significant archaeological features or artefacts were recorded and it seems likely that, should any such deposits have existed, that they have been destroyed by the intensive ploughing of this field over centuries of agricultural activity.
