NS 5463 7203 A watching brief was undertaken 17 January – 11 April 2012 during ground-breaking works associated with the construction of a new nursing home. The area was considered sensitive as it lies within the annexe of the Bearsden Roman fort. Deposits relating to the construction and demolition of a Victorian house that previously occupied the site were recorded. Two fragments of pottery, of probable Roman date, were recovered from the topsoil, but any in situ archaeological remains appear to have been destroyed during the construction of the Victorian house.
