Abstract:
Further work at this site (see also 94/1271) including work on area B which produced artefactual evidence in the form of flint débitage and a small bone point, and a stone pavement. Area C traversed the midden which had a high shell content and produced faunal and carbonised plant remains. A single perforated cowrie shell was also found. Limpets from the top and base of the midden were sent for radiocarbon dating assuring occupation at least back as far as the Mesolithic. There is some comparison with Obanian sites in western Scotland; further study of the midden may reveal more on coastal exploitation in the Mesolithic.
