Abstract

Archaeological works which uncovered a multi-period site were undertaken in 2018 and 2019 south of Kingsteps, Nairn, Highland. The archaeological features excavated comprised a possible Mesolithic feature, Neolithic fire pits, Early and Late Bronze Age pits, Iron Age and Pictish pits, and linear post-medieval features. In addition, further pits were identified which were similar in form and size to the Bronze Age pits and have therefore been interpreted as possibly prehistoric in date. Within the wider landscape surrounding Kingsteps a picture of similar multi-phased activity has been revealed at sites like Lochloy and Balmakeith Industrial Estate.
