A watching brief was undertaken between March and May 2004 for a series of new water mains in the burgh of Fortrose. Only two archaeological features of interest were noted: two small pits of unknown date. Most of the areas monitored had been heavily disturbed by existing services.
Full report lodged with Highland SMR and the NMRS.
