Abstract:
Headland Archaeology was commissioned to undertake a monitored topsoil strip in advance of the Phase 9 of the housing development at Culduthel Farm, Inverness. Previous excavation at sites adjacent to the north, south and west have revealed a rich archaeological landscape with evidence for occupation and industrial activity from the Neolithic to the present day. The excavations at Phase 9 revealed three main groups of features. The first consisted of a narrow sub-rectangular enclosure ditch, a large central pit and a number of further pits and post-holes. No firm dating evidence was retrieved from this group, although use during the Neolithic is suggested by typological comparison to similar enclosures. The other two groups were small clusters of pits and post-holes, both with artefactual evidence for Neolithic activity. One isolated feature may represent a waste pit of Iron Age date, and indeed palaeoenvironmental analysis suggests wider activity across the site during this period, although it is possible that some of this evidence may be intrusive, and related to a substantial Iron Age settlement to the west.
