There is a flint working site 'at the confluence of the Ythan and the Starsie Burn'. ('Starsie Burn' does not appear on OS maps; 'Tarty Burn' may be the name intended.)
J Godsman 1958.
There is no evidence to support Godsman's assertion that a flint-working site exists at the junction of the Tarty Burn and the River Ythan.
