A watching brief was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group in 2022 at Glengolly Farmhouse, Thurso (ND 10199 66071), as part of a planning condition for the installation of 4 pods, BBQ hut, cycle store and associated infrastructur. The site lies in an open area of grassland located approximately 1.8 miles southwest of Thurso, adjacent to Glengolly Farm.
