Full Description

A small, thumbnail flint scraper was recorded during a walkover survey at Stronlairig as part of an environmental assessment for a proposed hydro-electric scheme. It possibly dates to the Bronze Age and was located at 1927ft above sea level on a track. It is likely to be a stray find and possibly not part of a site. <1>
