During late 1984 and 1985, the Border Burghs Archaeology Project (BBAP) carried out an investigation of the ruins of the Bishop's House at Stow, in the Scottish Borders (formerly Berwickshire), a site with historical associations with the bishops and archbishops of St Andrews and part of a long-established estate centre.The investigation revealed the layout of a 16th-century building, which was altered on at least two occasions.There is evidence of destruction by fire, and the western room of the house was subdivided near the end of its life, probably to accommodate livestock.In front of the house was an enclosed cobbled yard, below which was a broad ditch which may have been the old boundary of the bishop's estate
