(No. 41) Douglas Farm NY 303 688 NY36NW 18

This settlement, also known as Wardens Dykes, is situated in a plantation 50m SSW of the Carlisle to Glasgow road (A74). Oval on plan, it measures about 54m by 42m within two banks and medial ditch. On the N, E and W there is a possible outer ditch, but this may have been dug to provide material for a plantation bank which caps the outer bank. The entrance is on the NW, and the interior, which is crossed by a track, contains a mound of recent date. For a field-system nearby see NY63NW 18.
