Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd was commissioned to undertake a Level 2 historic building survey and a programme of archaeological trial trenching prior to the redevelopment of an existing property at Windhouse, Yell, Shetland. The property, a former Laird's house, was built in 1707, and further remodelled and extended in 1885. The house comprises of an L-plan single-storey building extended to the east, north and west. Extensive collapse throughout the building, especially in the upper storey and roof has occurred in the last decade. The trial trenches revealed human skeletal remains indicating the presence of a burial ground. The partial remains of at least two buildings, one of which may be an early chapel, and artefacts dating to the Viking period were also recorded.
