NN 0515 6000 (centre) A topsoil strip was carried out on the proposed site of the new sewage treatment works at North Ballachulish, and for a strip 250m long by 6m wide along the pipe route to the N. Though located close to Carn Glas (NMRS NN06SE 7), no archaeological features were recorded.

Ground Survey (June 2008 - October 2008)
NN 12088 73896 – NN 05184 60015 Work was undertaken June–October 2008 to assess the potential impacts from the proposed insertion of water mains extending from Fort William to North Ballachulish sewage works. 121 sites were identified in a 300m corridor along the proposed route. There are indications that this area was occupied from as early as the Neolithic period. One site has been identified that could date to the Bronze Age, one to the Iron Age and one classed as prehistoric. The presence of so many sites suggests that the potential for encountering archaeological sites ranging from the early to post-medieval period is high.
