Full Description

A desk-based assessment and walkover survey was conducted during December 2002 by CFA Archaeology Ltd in advance of proposals to renew the Mulbuie water supply within and around Muir of Ord.

A mill named as Aultgowrie Mill is depicted on the 1st and 2nd edition 6-inch OS maps (1881, 1907). On the latter map it is mentioned as being a corn mill. The farmstead to its north, Aultgowrie, is also present on the 1st and 2nd edition 6-inch OS maps. The current OS 1:10000 map indicates that the mill sits within an enclosure. The building is currently in use as a residence.
