    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

The geophysical surveys included a substantial gradiometer and a smaller resistivity survey that aimed to characterise and explore the extent and survival of archaeology around the Craw Stane Pictish symbol stone (NJ42NE 35) and two other symbol stone findspots. The results showed several discrete anomalies; one of these was targeted by a small-scale excavation and proved to be a burnt Middle Bronze Age timber structure. This article describes the geophysical survey results and the excavation of the MBA structure and sets both within their landscape context. INTRODUCTION & Noble 2010).

The walk starts and finishes at the historic ruin of the Church of St Mary in Kincardine O’Neil, the oldest village on Deeside. The present structure dates back to the 14thC but it is believed to have been a place of Christian worship from the 6thC. This walking route takes in a number of old roads, starting with Gallowhill Road, its purpose deriving from Medieval times when every feudal baron was required to erect a gibbet (gallows) for the execution of male criminals, and sink a well or pit, for the drowning of females! Soon after, the route follows a short section of the Old Deeside Road, now a farm track, which dates to before the great agricultural improvements that started in the 1700's.

  • Excavation at Kildrummy Castle, Aberdeenshire, 1952
    EXCAVATIO T KILDRUMMNA Y CASTLE, ABERDEENSHIRE, 1952-62 . APTEDR . bM y , M.A., PH.D., F.S.A., F.S.A.SCOT. SUMMARY MRS YATES placed Kildrummy Castle under the guardianship of the then Ministry of Works in 1951. This paper records excavation and survey since that date with notes on the history of the castle and on unpublished small finds from previous excavation. Sections across the defences have confirmed the existence of a ditch S. of the castle corresponding to that on the E. and of a wide upcast bank and other features in front of the gatehouse. Excavation prior to consolidation has solved a number of problems in connection with the curtain walls and associated structures. New discoveries include the foundations of a 7 ft. wall extending across the S. front of thunbuiln a e f castlo d t toweean r butting agains chapee th t l gable. Recent historical research suggests that Edward I's master mason, James of St George havy ma e, bee t Kildrummna havd yan e been pai worr dfo k undertaken on King Edward's behalf there.

  • A2B Dial-A-Bus Proposed Changes, Community Fund, Water Supplies, and More
    Subscribe Past Issues Translate View this email in your browser Dear All, A message from Aberdeenshire Council for people with private water supplies. There are parts of Aberdeenshire where water levels are at what is described as 'significant scarcity' by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, which means that there may be pressure on water supplies. Please keep using water wisely. We are working with Scottish Water and the Scottish Government to provide bottled water and tanks to those whose private supply is running dry, at no cost. This would normally be something that we would expect owners to source themselves, but these are not normal circumstances. We are prioritising requests from those more vulnerable in the first instance. If you need help, please contact the council by emailing [email protected] or phoning 01467 539539 (during office hours). The Environmental Health Service will respond as quickly as possible to your enquiry. Long term, the service is providing advice on looking at future solutions such as support to help connect to the mains. If that is not possible, improvements to the current source or forming a new supply can be considered. Grants may be available for some of this work. There are over 7500 private water supplies in Aberdeenshire serving approximately 11500 properties. This is by far the highest number of any local authority in Scotland. There is some useful advice online here: http://www.scottishwater.co.uk/you-and-your-home/your-home/water-efficiency A2B Dial-a-bus proposed changes. Please see below the proposed changes to A2B dial-a-bus services in particular the suggestion that the Braemar – Ballater – Banchory service be withdrawn.
