NK 0525 3004 A watching brief was carried out from 19-21 June 2007 during the installation of an underground electric cable to service 19 Old Castle. The trenches were 200m W of the last surviving ruins of the 15th-century Old Slains Castle and near the line of a possible rampart. No clear archaeological features or finds were evident although the presence of some stone rubble and earth may indicate an attempt to consolidate the top of the steep slope near the possible rampart.
Reports deposited with Aberdeenshire SMR, Historic Scotland and RCAHMS.
