Archaeological Evaluation (October 2002 - December 2002)
NJ 213 630 The evaluation of part of a proposed retail development on the N side of Elgin between September and November 2002 uncovered a ditch 3m wide and 1.1m deep, running N-S. The ditch produced no artefacts and is thought to be a drainage feature running from the High Street to the River Lossie. No other significant features were identified.

Standing Building Recording
NJ 213 630 Prior to the submission of a planning application for the redevelopment of the site at Blackfriars Road, a programme of standing building recording was carried out, including additional historical research, from December 2001 to February 2002. The buildings recorded include a row of late 19th-century dwellings, a row of early 20th-century houses, a 1950s fire station, and Hay's lemonade factory dating from the 1960s. (AOC 3697)
