OPEN DAY AT TARRADALE EXCAVATION FRIDAY 6 OCTOBER 2023

Tarradale Archaeological Team (the successor to Tarradale Through Time) is reopening a trench on the shell midden site at Tarradale that was first excavated in 2017 but not completed. Important antler artefacts dating from c 4000 BCE were found in 2017 and the current excavation will explore these contexts further.

An open day will be held on Friday 6 October from 10 AM to 4 PM and visitors are welcome between these times. The excavation is accessed through the grounds at Tarradale House, Muir of Ord, IV6 7RS. A minor road leads to Tarradale House on the south side of the A832, one mile east of Muir of Ord heading towards Tore. There is a sign for Tarradale House at the end of the minor road but it faces west towards Muir of Ord and cannot easily be seen coming from the east.
