Archaeology Notes

ND07SW 22 04280 71010.

What survives of the original farmstead at Mains of Brims is masked by large modern sheds roofed with corrugated iron. The N range is the most intact and is T-shaped on plan incorporating a two-storey barn with threshing mill. This has roughly coursed rubble walls and a slate roof. The site was visited in 2000.
