Archaeology Notes

NS43NW 47 4369 3928

The footings of two rectangular, stone-built and compartmented buildings are in an afforested area SE of Dean Castle. One was partly excavated by J Hunter from 1979-1981, and its late (probably 17th/18th century) date and domestic function were confirmed. Finds included green glazed pottery and pipe stems.

Information from J Hunter, Dick Institute Museum, Kilmarnock.

Visited by OS (JRL) 7 July 1982.
