Parts of the cropmarked field immediately S of Ballinbreich Castle (NO22SE 8) were fieldwalked as part of a Council of Scottish Archaeology (CSA) training seminar. The cropmarks, some of which represent medieval enclosures and out buildings of the castle, were located on the ground and gridded with the aid of a plot prepared by RCAHMS. Finds included prehistoric flints, and medieval and post- medieval pottery.
