Abstract: |
AOC Archaeology Group carried out an archaeological walkover survey of the proposed Willow Wind Farm site, Tayinloan, Kintyre on 11th and 12th November 2015. The purpose of the survey was to evaluate the development area and assess the level of archaeological survival, in order to inform avoidance and mitigation strategies in advance of final design of access tracks and other infrastructure layout. A total of 48 archaeological sites were recorded during the walkover, of which 17 were new additions to the archaeological record. The majority of archaeological features recorded during the walkover survey related to the probable medieval to post-medieval settlement and agricultural use of the area, with the majority of sites relating to the known historical settlements at Lergnahuisan, Sron Albannach and Lagloskine. Prehistoric remains were restricted to possible standing stone(s) in the SW of the survey area. |
