Description
Archaeological trial trenching was carried out by Headland Archaeology in 2019 prior to a housing development at Druids Temple, Inshes, Inverness. The site until recently comprised c.9ha of agricultural land. This was subject to a 7% trial trench evaluation equating to 50 trenches across the full extent of the available development area. Geological subsoil was exposed in all trenches and this was recorded at between 0.2m and 0.6m below the surface. Two charcoal rich spreads were recorded along with several rubble field drains. No other archaeological features or deposits were identified. <1>
