5.2. SITE PLANS CHAPTER 5. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS<br />

this section represent the underlying Ordnance Survey maps that are available online<br />

(Digimap 2008) <strong>and</strong> are coloured in grey. The overlying plans in black are plots <strong>of</strong> the<br />

actual shorelines at the time <strong>of</strong> the survey in June/July 2008. For orientation, EI layouts<br />

<strong>and</strong> grid lines along with GPR traverses are plotted in colour.<br />

5.2.1 Loch Wasdale Crannog<br />

The grid crossed the center <strong>of</strong> the crannog <strong>and</strong> was then enhanced into the S for the<br />

investigations on the related mounds (s. Fig. 5.5).<br />

5.2.2 Loch Bosquoy Crannog<br />

The grid was laid out in parallel to the SW corner <strong>and</strong> the W shoreline that was roughly<br />

straight <strong>and</strong> from there advanced into the center that lay inside the walls. EI layout had<br />

to be done in such a way, that the lines <strong>of</strong> electrodes would neither rest on, nor cross<br />

over high walls, while for the radar instrument, it turned out to be impossible to centerly<br />
