Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Griffin Wind Farm Ltd to carry out a programme of archaeological works in advance of the construction of the wind farm. This phase of works included excavation of a previously-unrecorded group of monuments which included six cairns and three linear banks, that were identified during the course of a walk-over survey of access tracks and turbine bases in the Ballinloan section of the wind farm. A watching brief on the installation of a cable trench in the area to the east of Turbine 38 was undertaken which uncovered remains of a seventh cairn and a fourth linear bank. The cairns varied in shape and form and two were kerbed, which led to the initial tentative identification of the features as possible funerary cairns. Excavation established that the cairns are likely to be the result of land clearance in order to prepare and improve the land for cultivation and pasture. The abundance of cairns suggests that intensive agricultural activity was occurring in the area. L Scott 2011
