NN 727 011 A watching brief was undertaken in October to November 2005 during clearance and landscaping work in advance of the reconstruction of a collapsed wall within the guardianship area. The wall was constructed of roughly coursed stone boulders, bonded together with a cream-coloured lime mortar and located to the N of Castlebank Cottage, running in an E-W direction. The section of wall being reconstructed was some 30m long. The exact date of construction of this wall is unknown but was probably late 18th century.
