Archaeology Notes

NH74NW 127 7256 4603

NH 7256 4603 A watching brief was undertaken during the removal of a small structure from the area known as Kenneth's Black Well. The well was situated within Culloden Wood and was about to become part of a housing development. The well and associated structures were recorded on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps and formed part of the overall designed landscape of Culloden House Estate. The existing structure was constructed of concrete and appeared to be a late 19th or 20th-century building. The watching brief works found no traces of any earlier structures or evidence of the well itself.
