Description

A desk-based assessment and walkover survey were carried out by West Coast Archaeological Services in 2021 in advance of the construction of two new accommodation units (cabins) and studios site at Blàr na Feannag, on the Kilchoan Estate, Knoydart, Lochaber. The archaeological input was undertaken to assess the nature and extent of any archaeological sites or features likely to be affected within the areas outlined for the proposed developments and to inform recommendations for the protection and management of any sites recovered. The survey recorded the remains of archaeological features within the surrounding landscape, but no sites or features of archaeological significance were recorded at the locations of the two proposed accommodation units. <1>
