Activities

Archaeological Evaluation (4 April 2011 - 7 April 2011)

NH 7837 8114 An evaluation was carried out 4–7 April 2011 on a proposed retail development site on the outskirts of Tain. A number of trenches, covering 5% (2750m2) of the 5.5ha site were opened. No significant archaeological finds or features were recorded.

However, limited recording was undertaken of walls located on either side of the B9174 road, which belong to Knockbreck House, and may be affected by the development.
