NS 6513 7396 GUARD conducted a geophysical survey on behalf of Historic Scotland in Peel Park, Kirkintilloch, in February 2006 to try to determine the precise character of the Roman remains known to be present there and, more generally, to assess the condition of any other archaeological remains within the scheduled area. Although the survey was unable definitively to determine the character of the Roman remains, it did produce some intriguing anomalies. The survey also recorded the remains of the SW corner of a large earthwork, assumed to be part of the medieval castle of Kirkintilloch, as well as a number of other anomalies which may prove to be of archaeological significance.

Archive to be deposited in the NMRS. Reports lodged with Historic Scotland and the NMRS.
