NM 910 807 (centre) A walkover archaeological survey was carried out on a WGS centred on Torr a' Choit, N of Glenfinnan Visitor Centre. Traces of rig cultivation were found but no clear evidence for either settlement or shielings. Within the surviving oakwood there was also no trace of charcoal-burning platforms, as has been recorded to the S beside Loch Shiel and E beside Loch Eil.
A fuller report has been lodged with Highland SMR.
