On May 23rd and 24th, 2018 a watching brief was carried out during pew-removal works at St Machar's Cathedral, Aberdeen. While the works were limited in depth to 180mm below the former surface, an uppermost section of foundational walling on the S side of the seating area was exposed along the top course only, revealing a coarse stone wall with lime mortar slightly off N-S alignment. No other finds or archaeological features were noted and the works are now complete.
