NS 6675 6634 In September 2018 a community-based archaeological project (Seven Lochs Medieval Past) was undertaken at Provan Hall, (Canmore ID: 44985). The project encompassed a series of workshops and training sessions, schools engagement, a pop up exhibition and community excavation aimed at raising awareness, understanding and appreciation for Provan Hall and its heritage.

Five hand-excavated trenches uncovered the remains of a building that once stood a few metres to the E of the extant Provan Hall complex, along with stone foundations relating to the northern range of Provan Hall. The extent of the 20th century ground works, first identified during the 2014 excavations, was found to be more extensive than previously thought.
