Ground reduction of this site, which is near SMR 18:30, a watermill site, was undertaken over the autumn and winter of 2005 under archaeological supervision. It was found that the mass concrete foundations of 20th-century structures had cut through the upper level of the subsoil, truncating anything that may have survived the construction of the 19th-century distillery buildings.
