Full Description
Five linear ditch features excavated by CFA in 2019, following on from identification of features during a watching brief within the cable route corridor for the Moray East Offshore Wind Farm (NJ66SE0330). They were narrow, meandering and likely to have been formed by natural processes. No archaeologically significant deposits or finds were recorded to indicate a date, though two pieces of possibly worked prehistoric flints were recovered from one ditch, although these are unlikely to have been in situ.
