Day 1 Friday 23rd October
The first day after a week of preliminary evaluation of the
potential for the site went well with the volunteers clearing a good area of
turf around the cup and ring marked panels. The weather was good, spirits were
high.
A word from our sponsors... David Mason, with both his AASDN and Principal DCC archaeologists hats on, visits the site on Friday.
Saturday 24th October
On the second day, the weather was foul in the morning and
we decided to spend the time searching the headland on which the cup and ring
mark panels were located for additional archaeological remains. Further possible
cup and ring-marked stones were located as well as evidence of later period of occupation including
terracing, boundary banks and quarries. In the afternoon, the skies cleared and we
continued de-turfing.
