Description

A watching brief was undertaken by Headland Archaeology in 2018 at Wester Inshes, Inverness during ground works in advance of housing development. This work followed on from an earlier phase of trial trenching in 2008 (see EHG708). The results of this work showed numerous phases of activity through the early Neolithic to the medieval period. The archaeological activity on the site is represented through a series of pit groups and occupational spreads located predominantly in three different areas that represent activity from the early Neolithic period to the medieval period. <1>
