In June 2024 the Department of Archaeology at Reading University with Professor Steven Mithen had returned for more field work on Islay, this time for another dig at Olistadh on the Rhinns of Islay. This (if I remember correctly) is a barley kiln they unearthed during this dig, a dig with a view over Loch Indaal with the Oa in the distance.

A view north west from Four Winds, looking across to the small but beautiful Currie Sands at Claddach. The Atlantic stretching out to the horizon in background. Also notice the interesting wave splash on the rocks in the water, I believe caused by a wave rolling back from the main rocks.
