Monitoring of topsoil-stripping was carried out before the construction of a housing development on the lower slopes of a steep hill to the south-west of Broadford village. The topsoil layer, which was removed to the natural subsoil in all areas, was a firm, mid-grey/brown, silty clay loam 0.2–0.4m deep. This layer contained occasional inclusions of modern pottery and brick fragments and overlay the undisturbed natural subsoil. No features or finds of archaeological significance were uncovered.
