Archaeology Notes

NJ90NW 1775 centred 9048 0949

The site of this disused gravel-pit, which is first depicted on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1869, sheet lxxv and 1902, sheet lxxv.NW), is now largely occupied by industrial premises and their associated yards and car parks, but a high scarp marks its SW side.

Visited by RCAHMS (JRS) 29 April 2002.
