Description
An archaeological desk-based assessment and walkover survey was carried out by West Coast Archaeological Services in July 2011 on behalf of Bidwells and Glenshero Estate, Laggan, Highland in advance of a woodland establishment scheme. The work was undertaken to assess the nature and extent of any archaeology likely to be affected within the areas outlined for planting and regeneration and in order to inform recommendations for the protection and management of any sites recovered. The survey identified eight new archaeological sites including shielings, a small farmstead, turf and stone dykes and bridge abutments. Mitigation measures were proposed to safeguard the sites during the establishment of the woodland scheme. <1>
