E27

Limited excavation, comprising two small trenches, was carried out by Aberdeen City in 1987 in the garden of a townhouse, recorded features dating from the 17th Century. The earliest evidence dated from the 17th century and consisted of ditches, a possible wall foundation trench and a cobbled yard. A small selection of clay pipes and pottery sherds were excavated from this site. There was no evidence that the site had been developed before the 17th century. The finds from this site are in the collections of Aberdeen Art Gallery and Museums.
