NJ 190 694 An archaeological desk-based assessment and watching brief were carried out at Gordonstoun School, Moray, in response to a planning condition. Excavations for foundations for a new studio theatre, and associated service trenches, were observed and photographed. Wooden buildings, the tarmac surface of a former tennis court, and an area of turf were removed; beneath these surfaces lay approx 30-50cm of the topsoil giving way to sand beneath. There was a notable dark mineral pan at the interface. No archaeologically significant features or finds were recorded, and there are no recommendations for further work.
