NN 84470 18071 A watching brief was conducted, in February 2020, on remediation of heating fuel contamination at the rear of Drummond Castle (Canmore ID: 25354). Stripping of contaminated deposits revealed the deep rubble bedding for the 19th-century estate driveway, and the foundations of a 19th-century tower and buttress, as well as various 19th -century and later drainage features. A finely decorated porcelain fragment might be oriental, 18th century or earlier.
