Description

An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Highland Archaeology Services in 2019 in order to fulfil a planning condition stipulated by Highland Council on the erection of a single dwelling and garage at Land 50M East of Wellmeadow, Tarbat Mains, Kildary. The watching brief overlapped with one trench from previous trial trenching of the site in 2017 (see EHG5283). Three features were identified and recorded. These comprised a modern water pipe, an electricity pole removal trench, and a modern sheep burial. No artefacts were recovered. None of the features were archaeologically significant and no further work is recommended. <1>
