Archaeology Notes

NJ90SW 173 9374 0422

See also NJ90SW 31.00.

Nothing is visible of the steading of this croft, which stood in what is now Duthie Park (NJ90SW 31.00). As depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1869, sheet lxxv), the steading comprised two buildings, one a range with a long narrow outshot attached to its SSE end and a small outshot attached to the NNW end of its ENE side, and the other a very small structure standing immediately to the W. The steading appears to have been removed before the end of the 19th century and it is not shown on the 2nd edition of the map (1902, sheet lxxv.SE).
