Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology Ltd undertook a watching brief for construction of a new road link between the A96 and Waterford Road at Forres by Network Rail. The purpose of the work was to establish the presence of archaeological features or deposits within the area of ground breaking, and to fully record all archaeologically significant features as set out in the CIfA Standards and Guidance documentation. Several post-holes and pits were uncovered and excavated, including a series of pits relating to the on-site smelting and smithing of iron-ore; and the disposal of waste materials, both agricultural and industrial. These appear Iron-age in date, indicating the possibility of Iron-age settlement in the vicinity.
