Abstract: |
A community-based archaeological project (Seven Lochs Medieval Past) was undertaken at the supposed site of Inchneuk Tower, Glenboig, North Lanarkshire between the 3rd and 9th September 2018. The project was led by Northlight Heritage, alongside a series of workshops, training sessions, school visits and other community engagements aimed to raise awareness, understanding and appreciation of Inchneuk Tower and the wider heritage of Glenboig. Four hand-excavated trenches uncovered the remains of several old buildings - those seen in trenches 1 - 3 are likely to be post-medieval/19th century in date, possibly with older, individual elements; the structure seen in Trench 4 is almost certainly a surviving corner of a medieval Tower House/Peele Tower, although the material culture found in its demolition deposits suggest it was used/occupied until at least the 18th or 19th century. |
