Archaeology Notes

NN59SE 62 5876 9071

Within thick forest cover the remains of a drystone dyke, which runs for 28m, were recorded during a detailed archaeological survey of Strathmashie Community Forest near Laggan, Highland. The survey was carried out to assess the evidence for past human use and to ascertain whether there was enough archaeology to develop a heritage trail in the forest.
