Abstract:		 Excavations identified a cluster of small pits and post-holes. Neolithic Grooved Ware, including one vessel in the Durrington Walls sub-style, was recovered from several of the features, which appear to be domestic in function. The Durrington Walls vessel is at present the most northerly example of this sub-style, and radiocarbon dating has determined that it dates to the second half of the fourth millennium BC, one of the earliest dates anywhere in Britain for this style. Milton of Leys is the latest of a number of small Neolithic settlement sites to have been discovered in the Inverness area, where none was previously known. Includes sections on: The pottery; The flaked stone; Discussion: Grooved Ware; Discussion: function and form of settlement.
