The remains of a prehistoric hill fort are at Barra Hill, south of Oldmeldrum; the hill fort was excavated by Murray Cook of Rampart Scotland http://www.rampartscotland.co.uk/. Results indicated that it has had at least three phases of fortification: before 500 BC, after 500 BC and again by the Picts around AD 400. This project formed part of the Hill forts of Strathdon Project Another ancient site is Sheldon Stone Circle which is about to the south-east of Oldmedrum.
