Selective Test Pitting of Roundhouses in Wester Ross [Ullapool] ...
18 May 2012
Ullapool 1 (Rhue)
The second round of selective test pitting of roundhouses in Wester Ross at Rhue, nr Ullapool
Organised by Lochbroom Field Club, the days are led by archaeologist Anna Welti and volunteers from the local community who will teach the techniques of selective test pitting - small targeted excavations. The project is focussed on establishing when and how roundhouse dwellers occupied these houses in our local landscapes.
