We just moved house. We are so delighted to have been able to do this. But, this may take some time to organise.... spot the room belonging to the child who just left for Uni! 🤣

A fantastic season, w/ really exciting results - and unexpected chinook helicopters on some of the highest hills. Many tx to Sam, Clara, Dakota, Philippe, Lola, Deborah and Martin for a fieldseason worked in the best of spirits & highest of standards. Such a privilege to work in such a place. 🙏 8/8

For our last day, a long bike ride & hike to Clach a Chleirich - a very prominent glacial erratic on a natural routeway up. Places like this are known as Mesolithic sites in other European mountain ranges. No luck for us on this visit. But it was a great day out - & the site needed to be checked. 6/

Back at White Bridge, Phillipe & Lola were working on an augur survey to establish the extent of Mesolithic site, Deborah & Martin recorded surface lithics, surveyed the erosion on site and helped the others. We met with Dan Rhodes @nts-archaeology.bsky.social to talk about preliminary results. 5/

Whilst they were surveying in the valley, I spent a day surveying/walking the high corrie edges. A truly glorious day of walking. No Mesolithic sites identified! But really useful for understanding this landscape. 4/

Sam surveying Upper Glen Dee from Devil's Point. Sam, Clara and Dakota finding brief respite from the midges on the Corrour bridge. 3/

I'll let Sam @arctic-glacial.bsky.social explain the geological fieldwork in detail, but practically it involved walking into Corrour Bothy for a few nights camping and work in the upper reaches of Glen Dee. 9km with heavy packs walk in. Bit midgey - but a wonderful setting for a camp. 2/

Just finished a week of fieldwork on Late Glacial/Early Holocene landscapes/archaeology in Glen Dee, Mar Lodge Estate, Cairngorms, w/ colleagues Sam Kelly @arctic-glacial.bsky.social, Phillipe de Smedt & teams. Tx to @nts-archaeology.bsky.social, Mar Lodge Estate & @ucdarchaeology.bsky.social 1/8

On Carn Toul. Not a bad view...

Can the archaeological collective help? These are finds from our recent excavation at Glendalough. All from cultivated soils with lots of C19-20 material. Triangular(ish) sections, varied widths. They are very clearly a 'thing' but we don't know what. Any suggestions/parallels appreciated.

Sorting the back of the loft and found a box from school days. This job offer in 1990 paid the princely sum of £13.93 for seven hours work! (And I was happy to have it)

The very, very odd concrete relief map of Scotland made by Polish folk in the Borders in the 1970s. Utterly strange. 5x vertical exaggeration.

Not such a bad campsite.... St Mary's Loch, Scottish Borders

Here they all are! At day's start and day's end... Cracking effort folks - well done...

Great team of volunteers to get through everything today - many returning just to help us back fill. Here's their backfilling dance.... Our sincere thanks to you all!!
July 4, 2025 at 7:06 PM
Our new volunteers will need baaaaa-sic training 🤣🤣
July 4, 2025 at 8:21 AM
All action on site to finish what we can before backfilling tomorrow. Nearly there now - and some exciting discoveries late on our last full digging day! (Its always the way...) More details to follow.
July 3, 2025 at 5:46 PM
And of course - still recording finds, digging and sieving. Always sieving... In our defence: its not a bad place to be doing some sieving...
July 2, 2025 at 5:56 PM
Delighted be joined by Rob Shaw of @discoveryprogramme.bsky.social who was on site to do some end of excavation survey and photographic models and took the time to explain everything to our volunteers
