Date

Aug-Sept 2014

Description

An archaeological desk-based assessment, walkover survey and feasibility study was carried out between 12 August 2014 and 15 September 2014 on behalf of Staffin Community Trust as part of plans to construct a new network of paths along the east coast of the Trotternish peninsula, Isle of Skye, to complement and augment the existing pathways. Eight routes were surveyed over the course of three days with 165 sites recorded. The work was undertaken to assess the nature and extent of any archaeological sites along the proposed routes in order to provide information on their potential as points of interest to those using the paths; to inform recommendations for further research and interpretation of the sites and to inform recommendations for the protection and management of the sites. <1>
