The Sites and Monuments data made available through this web site, or Pastmap, or the WoSAS Interactive map search, is published for public information purposes only. The data should not be used for any development control or land management purposes without appropriate professional archaeological advice.
If you work for a commercial archaeological consultancy or contracting unit, and are undertaking research for a client for a planning or development control purpose, such as the preparation of a desk-based assessment or an Environmental Statement, or you are seeking information for another land management purpose, you may use the published data free of charge, but you should also consult WoSAS directly for a professional curatorial opinion on behalf of the relevant member Council in respect of the scope of assessments, evaluations, or other archaeological works. Failure to do so may result in your client's Environmental Statement, or other assessment report, or evaluation report, being rejected as incomplete, or not fit for purpose, in the WoSAS advice to the member Council. You may also request direct from WoSAS a digital extract of Sites and Monuments Record data for your own specific purposes in preparing reports for your clients, but a charge for the provision of this service will be levied in accordance with the WoSAS published fee charge policy.
All datasets are subject to frequent revision. The West of Scotland Archaeology Service Joint Committee will have no liability in respect of any error, inaccuracy or omission in information provided on this website, or in respect of any costs, expenses or losses incurred by reason of any such error, inaccuracy or omission.
