Details Cropmarks of at least ten ring-ditches, pits, a pit-alignment, field system and other indeterminate cropmarks are visible spread over two fields. The pit-alignment is similar to that of Warren Field, Crathes (NO79NW0012) which when excavated proved to be Mesolithic in date. Test-pitting was carried out at the north end of the eastern field in 2004 as part of a programme of investigation in the area (NJ81NW0198) for the Kintore Landscape Project. The work recovered 14 flint and two quartz artefacts, which appear to be part of a background level of Neolithic and Bronze Age activity, although a concentration of probable Mesolithic flints was recovered from the field to the south (NJ81NW0031).
