Archaeology Notes

NM69SE 18 6149 9177

NM 7160 9566 - NM 6554 7024 As part of proposals to upgrade the water supply in the Arisaig and Mallaig area, the existing and new pipeline route was examined. Only one small site appeared to be directly threatened by the new pipeline, though several dykes and fragmentary field systems may also be damaged. Extensive shieling settlements were noted outside the pipeline wayleave to the W of Loch Eireagoraidh, and a possible homestead at NM 6649 9177 adjacent to the existing main road at Glenancross.

A more detailed report has been lodged with Highland SMR and the NMRS.
