NO 444 343 Eight trenches covering a total of 1129m2 were excavated in January 2006, in advance of the development of Area K of the Ballumbie Castle Estate. The site lies adjacent to the old chapel, castle and surrounding designed landscape. No archaeological features were found in the trenches. The remains of a possible brick path, which may be that depicted on the 1st Edition OS Map (1857) bisecting the garden on a N-S alignment, were recorded during the survey work.
