26. Defensive Enclosure, Glengelt.

About ½ mile north-west of the parish church, at the upper side of Glengelt farm and some 250 yards back from the Haughy Burn, are the remains of the so-called ‘Roman Camp’ of Channelkirk, planned and described by General Roy. The indefinite remains of a rampart with stones protruding from the surface along its course may be seen running north-west for a short distance, and thereafter passing beneath the Kirkton hill march dyke, continuing parallel with the burn in a south-south-westerly direction.

See History of Channelkirk, p. 642; Roy, p. 61, pl. vi.
