In advance of further housebuilding in Castlecary village, a search was made N of Castlecary Road for the NE corner angle of the camp. The E defensive ditch was located, width 1.15m, depth at least 0.6m; but the area had been much disturbed in the 19th century by the embankment of the adjacent Glasgow to Edinburgh railway-line, and more recently by the construction and subsequent demolition of Castlecary Village Hall.

There were no small finds.

Sponsor: Mr K McMillan, Castlecary House Hotel.
