Activities

Field Visit (26 January 2018 - 10 March 2018)

Designed garden and landscape associated with Glenapp Castle/House. Only one land parcel (278/17) is located within the designated area with the rest just lying against the boundary line.

No evidence of a designed landscape could be seen as 264, 278 and 310/17. 295/17 contained a series of curved banks. The banks were approximately 1.5m in height and concentrated in the south side of land parcel 295/17 but were not visible within the historic mapping so most likely modern. The area is marked as disused pits on the 2006 1:25000 ordinance survey, but there is no indication in the historical mapping of when the pits was in use.
