Description

An archaeological desk-based assessment and walkover survey was carried out on behalf of James MacQueen Building Contractors Ltd in relation to construction of new houses at Flodigarry on the Isle of Skye. The only upstanding archaeological features observed on site were four sections of turf and stone built dykes. During the survey it was observed that several test pits had been excavated on the house plots to the level of the subsoil. The exposures revealed a thin soil horizon overlying bedrock. There was no artefactual material noted in the spoil. <1>
