Description
A watching brief on a new fire main trench to the west of Haddo House in July 2011 recorded a considerable wall which pre-dated the lawn, established when Haddo House was built. It is possible that the wall is part of, or related to, the House of Kelly (MAB56503). A geophysical survey and testing pitting were subsequently carried out.
