Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology undertook a topographic and photographic survey on four sites as part of a programme of archaeological non-invasive investigations to facilitate the construction of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route and associated schemes. Snarleshow (Dambrae) Possible Lade (Site 42) is depicted on historic maps as a channel leading towards Snarleshow (now Dambrae) farm. The topographic survey of the Kirkhill Upright Stone (Site 51) recorded a small stone of up to 0.9m in height, set into the embankment of a local road probably dating to the mid 19th century. The Overhill Cattle rubbing stones (Site 57) are not visible on 19th century maps and are likely to relate to 20th century changes to the field layout in this area. Mill of Foveran Lade (Site 72) is clearly marked on historic mapping, and serves a corn mill dated to 1609 (the mill itself lies just outwith the survey area). The topographic survey found the lade to be in poor condition with some parts being heavily overgrown. |
