Archaeology Notes

NJ41NE 136 4704 1504

For present Upper Drumallachie steading (NJ 4684 1489), see NJ41SE 89.

Nothing is visible of the earlier steading of Upper Drumallachie, which stood in the arable fields to either side of the minor public road leading past the present steading of Upper Drumallachie (NJ41SE 89). It is depicted as roofed on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Aberdeenshire, 1870, sheet lxi), but was removed before the end of the 19th century (2nd edition, 1902, sheet lxi.NE) and replaced by the new steading about 200m to the SW.

Visited by RCAHMS (JRS), 5 June 1997.
