Kirkdale Archaeology provided a watching brief at Skipness Castle, Kintyre, Argyll (NGR NR 908577) under the PIC call-off contract with Historic Scotland. The work to be recorded was the cutting of a short service trench in the NE corner of the Guardianship area.

The trench was 3.30 m long, 0.25 m wide and 0.30-0.35 m deep. It extended from the SW corner of the new custodian’s hut in the NE corner of the guardianship area to the telegraph pole beside the NE corner of the cart shed nearby.
