Watching Brief (February 2007)
In February 2007, David Foote of Halliday Fraser Munro commissioned Aberdeen City Council Archaeology Unit to carry out an Archaeological Watching Brief on excavations associated with the proposed extension and refurbishment of part of the existing building and replacement windows of the Fraser Noble Building, Elphistone Road, Aberdeen, for the University of Aberdeen.
The Fraser Noble building is located in close proximity to the settlement of Old Aberdeen, which has origins dating back at least to the 12th century. An archaeological watching brief was considered appropriate in light of the potential for significant archaeological discovery.
