This limekiln is noted on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (1866-7 and 1900, respectively). It was not examined in the course of Headland Archaeology's (1996) survey.
Information from S Carter and M Dalland (Headland Archaeology), 1996 (MS/899/3, no. 11).
NO 42 99 (centre) A short notice forestry survey was undertaken by Headland Archaeology Ltd over roughly 7km2 of land to the W of Lochs Kinord and Davan in the Howe of Cromar, Aberdeenshire. The survey took in the E slopes of Culblean Hill and the W part of the Muir of Dinnet. A total of 13 features or groups of features of archaeological interest were recorded. Eight records relate to previously known archaeological features, although one (cairns and enclosure) has not been plotted before. Four records (all limekilns) were noted on early OS maps. The final record is of a previously unidentified medieval or later settlement.
