The features included post holes from a probable roundhouse, a circular building 8m in diameter with posts c. 100 mm in diameter, two grain storage pits with c. 5 kg of carbonised grain as well as another possible building and an area of iron working represented by hammer scale. Recorded during archaeological supervision of the topsoil strip for the Dingwall-Invergordon British Gas pipeline.
