Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works was carried out at Carcant Wind Farm. The initial phase of works was carried out in 2006 and consisted of a reconnaissance survey. The reconnaissance survey identified ten sites consisting of a wall and gate pillar, an enclosure, two quarry scoops, two cairns, a raised circular platform of possible prehstoric date, two drystone field walls and an area of probable peat workings. With the possible exception of the circular platform, the features identified are thought to relate to 19th/20th century agricultural improvements. Subsequent phases of work consisted of a series of watching briefs, an evaluation and a further reconnaissance survey along the proposed line of an electrical cable route. The reconnaissance survey identified a further length of dry-stone wall and the denuded remains of an enclosure, which is first depicted on the First Edition 6 |
