Tuesday 27th October
Another day troweling as the fog closed in.
Troweling continued in the rain, but work was abandoned for
the day when ground conditions became too difficult.
Thursday 29th October
We arrived in the morning under dark skies and heavy rain to
find the site waterlogged. But, after cutting drains and soak-aways to reduce
the water level, the final square of cleaning was carefully undertaken. The
skies started to clear just as Damien Ronan arrived to record the rock art and
trench by photogrammetry. This ubiquitous technique produces a
three-dimensional full-colour plan within an amazingly short time. After lunch,
the skies cleared and the volunteers started to investigate the small number of
possible archaeological features.
