Description

Flint cores and flakes have been recovered from Kilnave beach in the past. No surface scatters were noted during this survey. RCAHMS, Canmore. ShoreUPDATE 24 June 2015 Site not located. This site is a few hundred metres south of the prehistoric settlement site at Kilellan Farm excavated between 1954 and 1976 (Ritchie 2005). However, this area has stabilised; the area of excavation is now well-vegetated, and the coastal erosion on this stretch of coastline is negligible.
