Archaeology Notes

NN59SE 40 5866 9263

On top of a small knoll a pile of cobbles and boulders was recorded during a detailed desktop and walkover survey of Strathmashie Forest ahead of a proposed heritage trail. Enough archaeological features were found to make the trail worthwhile. The stone pile forms no clear structure. It measures around 15m x 15m and may be a field clearance cairn.
