Archaeology Notes

NJ72SE 238 7820 2388

For Bourtie House (NJ 7854 2404) and associated buildings, see NJ72SE 115.00.

Nothing is visible of this farmsteading, which stood in what is now a cultivated field about 350m SW of Bourtie House (NJ72SE 115.00). As depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1870, sheet xlv), the farmstead was situated on the S side of a farm track and comprised four buildings ranged around a yard. The only roofed building, which was probably the farmhouse, stood adjacent to the track in the NW corner of the yard. Two other buildings formed the SW corner of the yard, and the fourth, containing two compartments, lay on the E. The farmstead appears to have been removed before the end of the 19th century and it is not depicted on the 2nd edition of the map (1901, sheet xlv.SE).
