Full Description
A watching brief was carried out by Aberdeen City Council Archaeological Unit in October 2009 during groundworks for fencing as part of the closure of a landfill site. This recorded part of a dry stone dyke, in some places a 5-6 course rubble built wall. A ditch and related upcast could relate from agricultural improvements. A mound, 3m in diameter surviving to 0.6m appeared to be a natural feature.
