Abstract:
The paper presents the results of a survey of promontory forts on the Solway coast of Dumfries and Galloway. This work was carried out by the author primarily to determine the extend and nature of erosion affecting these sites. The surveying programme also attempted to determine morphological and topographical traits that might clarify aspects of the nature of occupation of the Galloway promontory forts. Sixteen sites were surveyed between 1996 and 1997. A further survey took place in 1999 and 2000 as part of the pilot `Shorewatch' scheme. The resulting site plans provide a baseline of data from which future assessments may measure the condition of these sites and develop appropriate research and conservation priorities.
