KNOCKNASHEE PROJECT
We were delighted to have welcomed Dr Dirk Brandherm and Cormac McSparron of the Knocknashee Project to St Nathy’s Hall recently for what was an interesting and revealing insight into the foundations of our community. It was fascinating to learn of a possible Hunter Gatherer (Mesolithic) link.
We are looking forward to welcoming them back with the results of the laboratory analysis and future digs. Big thanks to all who helped out on the night.
