This report describes the findings from an archaeological investigation undertaken at Normandykes Roman Camp, near Peterculter, Aberdeenshire in June 2006.

The work was instigated because of damage wrought during timber extraction in very wet conditions early in 2006: deep ruts were cut into the west side of the fort, penetrating through the topsoil and into the underlying subsoil.

Ian Stewart, Woodlands Manager for James Jones & Sons Limited, commissioned Scotia Archaeology to undertake this work which was carried out by John Lewis and Robin Murdoch between 12th and 20th June 2006.
