Description
An archaeological walkover survey was undertaken by Highland Archaeology Services in 2025 at Flodigarry on the Isle of Skye, to satisfy a planning condition in advance of the development of a proposed Gaelic Language Centre. Fieldwork was undertaken between 23rd and 26th June 2025. The work took place in a variety of conditions from heavy rain showers to sunshine. During the survey five possible archaeological features were recorded. These comprised one rectangular structure, two enclosure walls, one roughly square turf feature, and the remains of a cairn built in 2009 to commemorate Flodigarry township. Ten trenches were subsequently excavated, three of which targeted the features recorded during the walkover survey in order to characterise these (see EHG6430). <1>
