Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and walkover survey was carried out between the 20th and the 22nd April 2011 on behalf of Auch Estate, Bridge of Orchy, Argyll and Bute in advance of a woodland establishment scheme. The work was undertaken to assess the nature and extent of any archaeology likely to be affected within the areas outlined for planting and regeneration (Areas 2, 3 and 4) and in order to inform recommendations for the protection and management of any sites recovered. The survey identified new sites of archaeological interest within Area 3 including houses, shielings, enclosures and boundary walls. Mitigation measures are proposed to safeguard the sites during the establishment of the woodland scheme. No archaeological sites were identified within areas 2 and 4. |
