Two small burnt mounds were excavated at Stoneyburn, near Crawford, Lanarkshire; both produced Bronze Age radiocarbon dates and evidence that they were cooking places. An Appendix `Two burnt mounds in Annandale discovered during topsoil stripping' (23--8) records mounds at Muirhead and Cleuchside, Dumfriesshire, including contributions by Camilla Dickson on `Environmental material' [Muirhead] (25) and `Environmental evidence' [Cleuchside] (27).

Excavations within the courtyard of the fifteenth-century tower house at Plean, Stirlingshire, revealed some new details of the medieval structures, but most stratified deposits appear to have been removed during modern restoration.

Records survey and excavation on Burnhouse Moor, Wiston, Lanarkshire. A circular enclosure, perhaps post-medieval, may have been associated with fields. Following a period of cultivation, three ring-enclosures were built. In a final phase of activity two more enclosures can be linked to sheep husbandry.
