NG 800 209 A Late Bronze Age socketed axehead was found by Mr GJ Stoddart about 1995 among fallen scree in a roadside gravel quarry. The axehead belongs to the so-called Meldreth type characterised by their slender proportions and faceted bodies. Claimed as Treasure Trove (TT 12/06) and allocated to Inverness Museum and Art Gallery.
