EHG5430 - Evaluation - Beauly-Denny, Tower FT119, Glen Truim, Dalwhinnie

An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Northlight Heritage in 2012 at the location of tower construction compound FT119 near Dalwhinnie, as part of the Beauly to Denny 400kV overhead line development programme. A single trench totalling 9m² was opened to evaluate a possible artificial mound that was noted during a previous survey of the construction area. No significant archaeological remains were encountered and the mound was shown to be a natural feature. A small burnt deposit between the topsoil and subsoil was considered to have derived from either natural or man-made heather burning and was not archaeologically significant. <1>
