Aerial Photographic Interpretation (28 September 2022)
The SE half of what may be an Iron Age enclosed settlement has been recorded as cropmarking on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1994) on level ground about 330m NE of Redhouse Burn. It measures about 55m from NE to SW by about 34m transversely within a ditch about 2m broad. What may be a ring ditch house is visible in the interior. It measures about 10m in diameter within a ditch about 2m broad, broken by an entrance gap on the S.
