Two ring enclosures sit about 11m apart on a terrace about 550m SSE of the summit of Deans Hill. Both measure about 14m in overall diameter over turf walls that have degraded into banks spread up to 2m in thickness and only 0.1m in height. The enclosures are partly overlain by rig-and-furrow orientated WNW and ESE, and it is possible that they overlie broad rig-and-furrow, though this relationship was not clear on the date of visit. A small whinstone quarry of unknown date is situated 10m to the S of the SW enclosure. Oval on plan, it measures about 12m from NNE to SSW by 7m transversely. [...] |

FIELD VISIT |
Two oval, probably prehistoric, barrows are situated on the level summit of a ridge about 550m SE of Romanno Mains farmstead and about 30m W of an old field boundary, at a height of 345m OD. The larger of the two (NT 17529 47975), which is situated at the SW end of the ridge, is a grass-grown mound with a slight depression in the top. It measures at least 7.9m from NE to SW by 7.5m transversely and about 0.3m in height. A modern pit encroaches slightly on the SE. [...] |

At least one barrow and six other amorphous mounds are located some 900m SE of Romanno Mains farmstead, on the SE flank of an unnamed hill overlooking the Fingland Burn. The features, which are situated about 350m ESE of a pair of barrows (NT14NE 31), are spread across an area measuring over 400m from NE to SW by up to 200m transversely. [...] |
