Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works was required by John Robertson and Sons Joiners Ltd in respect to the erection of 8 detached and 4 semi-detached dwelling-houses and the formation of an associated access road on land to the north of Doonhill Harbour View, Blackwaterfoot Isle of Arran (Planning ref: 11/00776/PP). The archaeological works were designed to mitigate the impact on the archaeological remains identified within the development area. During the works several groupings of probable Neolithic pits were uncovered along with a semi-circular series of postholes provisionally dated to the Late Bronze Age /Early Iron Age. In addition several hundred sherds of prehistoric pottery were recovered including a sherd of carinated bowl was recovered from the site along with 120 pieces of struck Arran pitchstone. |
