EHG178 - Walkover survey - Coille an Leatraich

An archaeological survey of a single distinct area of proposed planting and natural woodland regeneration was carried out in advance of site works. The survey was commissioned by Kevin Sutton, Forester to Tilhill Economic Forestry, as part of the initial environmental assessment of the landscape, in order than the surviving archaeology might be highlighted and preserved. The survey was carried out on the 19th and 20th October 1999 during a spell of warm sunny weather. A written record of each site was kept on prepared recording sheets and where it was thought appropriate sketch surveys were made. A total of 7 new sites were located, and the 8 known sites were re-visited. <1>
