Full Description
A watching brief and an archaeological evaluation were undertaken by CFA Archaeology Ltd between August and October 2008 at a proposed housing development at Mosstodloch. A watching brief was carried out during ground investigation works, which consisted of the excavation of seventeen trial pits. No archaeological features were uncovered. Thirty-five trial trenches were excavated, amounting to around 10 percent of the development area. Nine undated pits were excavated. The function of these pits was not determined through excavation. The distribution of the pits showed no spatial patterning indicative of structures, although the proximity and morphology of pits in Trench 10 may suggested they were related.
