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 nice and sunny June afternoon on Islay, a couple walking their two dogs on the beach below Bowmore distillery on the shore of Loch Indaal.
A view south west from above Daill, looking aross Bridgend Woods out over Loch Indaal. Bowmore on the left on this side of the loch. In the distance below Beinn Tart a’Mhill on the Rhinns of Islay you can make out Port Charlotte. Towards the right Bruichladdich with the distillery warehouses.
