Archaeological Field Walk led by Lachlan and Lynne McKeggie of ARCH.

Meet at Nigg Old Church.

On Saturday May 25th an archaeological field walk will be led by Lachlan and Lynne McKeggie of ARCH (Archaeology for Communities in the Highlands). Meet at Nigg Old Church ( not at the Nigg Village Hall as previously announced) at 2.00 pm. Suitable for adults and older children Sturdy footwear is recommended. The Bishop's Walk, adjacent to the church, is an area likely to have been of importance to the early medieval church on the site and could include the original site of the cross-slab. It was in the Walk that the newly inserted fragment of the Pictish beast symbol was found in 1998.
After the walk there will be refreshments at the Nigg Village Hall, and discussion of the nature of the site and how it could be interpreted further, to finish at around 4.00 pm.
