Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and walkover survey were carried out on the 5-6 September 2012 in advance of a new native woodland planting scheme in the vicinity of Airor on the central west coast of the Knoydart Peninsula. The work was undertaken to assess the nature and extent of any archaeology likely to be affected within the areas outlined for the proposed woodland planting scheme in order to inform recommendations for the protection and management of any sites identified. The survey recorded a significant number of new archaeological sites including settlement remains in the form of townships and farmsteads, shielings, enclosures, field dykes and areas of rig and furrow cultivation. |
