Full Description
NL69NW 7.45 64 97
TR1: To the NE of NL69NW 7.37, a sondage was cut to confirm the direction of the 18th-century trackway noted on NL69NW 7.07. The sondage showed that the track continued E in a line which would lead it to a natural ramp up the side of the cliffs and out of the Allt Chrisal valley in the direction of the settlement at Nask to the E. In an expansion of the sondage at the S end, a recent shelter construction of large boulders was located.
