NC 71797 62344 A rescue excavation was carried out 11–12 October 2011 under the provisions of the Historic Scotland human remains call-off contract. Disarticulated remains had been buried in a sand dune that had collapsed due to burrowing and wind erosion. The incomplete skeletal remains recovered appear to represent a single inhumation, although no archaeological contexts associated with the burial could be discerned.
