Forestry Survey: Keabog, Drumlithie, Aberdeenshire

Headland Archaeology undertook a pre-afforestation survey over c.196 hectares some 7km south-west of Stonehaven. The area surveyed surrounds Keabog farm steading and comprises largely ploughed fields and areas of improved pasture. There is a one small mature conifer woodland at the summit of Stony Hill near the north west corner of the area and some areas of rough ground, mainly to the north-east of Stony Hill and on the north-west side and around the summit of Carmont Hill. The ground lies between 120m OD and 235m OD at the summit of Carmont Hill.

There are eleven previously recorded archaeological sites within the survey area ranging from prehistoric cairns to areas of rig.
