A rapid walkover survey of 250ha of mature conifer woodland was carried out prior to clear felling. A total of 43 new archaeological sites were recorded, including six roundhouses at NH 297 268, NH 293 265 and NH 294 263. Areas of post-medieval cultural landscape also survive, with structures, boundaries, enclosures and clearance cairns all represented.
