Archaeology Notes

NH76NE 302 from NH 7845 6733 to NH 7995 6722

NH 7845 6733 to NH 7995 6722 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken for a new waste water pipeline and associated treatment works between April and August 2002. Finds included two ditches, one with a burnt post situated above which provided a radiocarbon date of 780±80 BP. Work in co-operation with Cromarty Museum produced metal-detected finds from topsoil stripping, including coins, buttons and lead. Finds were also made of 16th-century and later pottery.

Full report deposited in Highland SMR and the NMRS.
