NJ 94287 06433 (NJ90NW 175) A Level 2 standing building survey was carried out, 8–20 March 2017 of the category A listed Greyfriars Church prior to conversion work. The church was built in one phase in 1903 as a free-standing building, but was later joined to the new Marischal College frontage. 17th-century wooden panels inscribed with names and dates
were incorporated into the E end of the new church, the facing of the first floor gallery and the exterior of the SW main door. It is uncertain where these panels originated but they may have come from the old Greyfriars Church or St Nicholas Kirk. A watching brief on trial pits below the floor
identified no finds or features of archaeological significance.
