Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd carried out a programme of archaeological works for RENERCO at Kildrummy Windfarm, Aberdeenshire in order to satisfy conditions of planning consent. The archaeological work was carried out between March 2012 and May 2012; it was curated by Aberdeenshire Council Archaeology Service. The archaeological works comprised a walkover survey to identify previously recorded and upstanding sites, a detailed survey of peat cuttings and associated cairns. Construction work was archaeologically monitored in the lower lying areas of the site. The monitored area comprised a single stretch of access track totaling c1.1 km in length and the construction compound area. On the length of access track which climbed the valley side to the upland areas of the windfarm a simple soil profile of thin topsoil derived from glacial deposits was noted across the monitored area. One feature of archaeological interest was noted in this excavation comprising a linear ditch representing a post-medieval land boundary. Building recording work at Wester Clova farmsteading was undertaken. Jamie Humble 2012. |
