Archaeology Notes

NJ91NW 165 9222 1784

This cottage has been removed and its site lies in a cultivated field 300m WSW of Meadowhead farmsteading (NJ91NW 204). The cottage is depicted roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1870, sheet lvi), but it appears to have been demolished before the end of the 19th century and is not shown on the 2nd edition of the map (1901, sheet lvi.SW).

Visited by RCAHMS (JRS), 27 August 2002.
