NS 3034 4328 A watching brief was carried out September 2010 during the insertion of new drainage at Kilwinning Old Parish Church. The ground had been previously disturbed with modern backfill deposits present across the whole of the development area. The only feature discovered was the line of a sandstone foundation (007), which may represent the presence of an earlier structure, although the use of concrete to bond it suggests it to have been only 20th-century in date. Several fragments of disarticulated human bone were recovered from the disturbed deposit which sat above the 20th-century foundation (007).
