Archaeology Notes

NG62SE 38 694 244

A walkover survey was undertaken in June 2004 of the site of the proposed Broadford Airport at Ashaig. The survey recorded five new sites including: a burial cairn; the site of St Malrudha's preaching stance; an enclosure system; and an enigmatic mound of earth and stones - probably a dump of material from the construction phase of the original airport.
