Archaeological Excavation on the Otterburn Ranges

Archaeological excavation of possible prehistoric features

12^th-16^th and 19^th-23^rd August 2019

In partnership with Operation Nightingale, we will be carrying out an archaeological excavation of possible prehistoric features in the Bellshiel area of the Otterburn Ranges. Operation Nightingale is a military initiative, which uses archaeology to aid recovery of wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans. The features we plan to investigate include a possible Bronze Age Ring Cairn, prehistoric clearance cairn or burial monument and a linear earthwork.
