Abstract: |
As part of a programme of mitigation works prior to the construction of Dungavel Windfarm, a shepherd's cairn was evaluated to establish its archaeological significance. The shepherd's cairn was deconstructed and found to be a random collection of stone measuring about 1m high and 2.5m in circumference at its base, resting on top of topsoil, with bedrock beneath. A programme of survey was also conducted to carry out pre-felling demarcation and post-felling walkover survey of the felled infrastructure areas prior to construction work commencing. Two new sites, identified as grouse butts, were recorded. |
