Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation of the 18th century military road at Loch Arklet was carried out between 2nd and 4th August 2011. The evaluation targeted the intersection of the military road and an earlier pre-1718 road in order to record their relationship. A culvert forming part of the road was also investigated. The evaluation established that the 18th century military road straightened and improved earlier phases of road construction with well constructed culverts built to cross the numerous streams feeding Loch Arklet. No finds or earlier features were identified during the evaluation. |
