NJ 79620 00500 A watching brief was carried out, 9 February – 19 May 2015, during earthworks associated with driveway repairs at Drum Castle. A drainage trench at the side of the drive cut across a substantial stone wall, 2.25m wide, and apparently running N/S, at NJ 79655 00546. It was sealed by a burnt layer. An abraded sherd of medieval or post-medieval pottery was found in the disturbed backfill of the later drain.
