NM&^SW 18 728 637 and 728 638
Reconnaissance work in connection with the Millennium-funded Sunart Oakwood Project resulted in the discovery of a number of sites on adjoining estates, including:
NM 728 637 Deserted settlement, ??Ledaig?.
NM 728 638 Recessed platforms.
Research into the history of the oakwoods is ongoing. Oak trees derived from maiden stems, singled coppice and multi-stemmed neglected coppice occur throughout the woodlands. Very occasional senile pollarded trees suggest an earlier woodland management regime, possibly dating from the late medieval period.
