NH 97 06 A walkover survey was carried out of an extensive area S of the existing Glenmore Forest and NW of the chairlift car park. Only a small site at NH 9657 0653, possibly for trapping wildcats, was identified in the survey area. The survey was significant for showing no trace of shielings within this area. A possible shieling site was noted outside the survey area at NH 9750 0758, probably a 'stance' already shown as abandoned by 1766.
A more detailed report has been lodged with Highland SMR and the NMRS.
