NN 73034 01207 to NN 72841 01102 A watching brief was

carried out, March 2018, during the installation of a new

power cable for stair lighting. Two trenches were excavated;

one to the N of the Ardoch Burn and one to the S, with the

SW part of the trenches being within the scheduled area,

where it followed an existing cable.

Stone walls were recorded to the NE and W ends of the

cable trench, both were in the location of field walls or

boundaries seen on the OS 25" map of 1864. No finds or

features relating to the castle were uncovered.
