Scope and Content Ring ditches and possible unenclosed settlement, Newbigging, Angus Identified by aerial photography, these cropmarks lie in arable farmland some 400m south of Newbigging steading, close to the northern edge of the Montrose Basin. These cropmarks appear to comprise a small unenclosed settlement. The circular cropmarks may represent remains of houses; associated structures and enclosures show as other marks. Aerial survey can reveal the remains of buried archaeological sites. Cereal crops, such as barley grow to different heights: there is better growth over a buried ditch than over buried stones. This height difference is visible from the air as a cropmark. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
