Abstract: |
In advance of works to replace electrical cables supplying power to the heating system in Iona Abbey, archaeological excavations were carried out to locate the site of the original trench for the central heating cables. Once located, the trench was excavated to the level of the cables, which were then fully exposed ready for work to be carried out. Two trenches were opened to the N of the Abbey Church. During the course of the later excavations in March 2010, no archaeological features of finds were encountered. The earlier excavation during January and February 2010 in the nearby area yielded significant archaeological finds such as a Viking bronze pin and possible evidence of medieval deposits or horizons. |
