and further up the lane another  15 minutes walk to the Baliscate Chapel Site recently filmed by Time Team .............................

Island Holiday Cottage's Hylda Marsh and friend Bev Langhorn made a remarkable discovery through their work with 'Scotland's Rural Past' leading to a visit in May from Channel 4's Time Team.

 

Scotland's Rural Past is a volunteer led survey by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS).

 

What they found turned out to be one of the most important finds ever featured on the programme, which has been running for 17 years.

 

We can't disclose what was found - you'll have to watch the programme which is due for broadcast in April  2010.
