A watching brief was undertaken in October 2000 during minor excavations within Bothwell Castle courtyard. The purpose of the work was to provide five post-holes to take the metal uprights of a protective fence.
The layers of material from these shallow pits appear to be a recent turf landscaping covering a general debris deposit banked up behind the rebuilt revetting wall and used as landscaping to level up this part of the courtyard. No finds were retrieved.
