Activities

Project (May 2022 - May 2023)

A Community Coastal Zone Assessment Survey (CCZAS) of the Aberdeenshire coast from Cullen at the Moray-Aberdeenshire council boundary to Milton Ness at the Aberdeenshire-Angus council boundary was undertaken. The survey area also included a stretch of coastline from Blackdog to Bridge of Don which falls within the City of Aberdeen council boundary.

The aim of the survey was to characterise and assess the condition and vulnerability of the coastal archaeological resource along stretches of coastline identified as being at moderate to high risk of erosion by 2030. Most of the accessible coastline falling into this category was walked by SCAPE officers and volunteers over several separate surveys between May 2022 and May 2023.
