Finnarts Hill NX 053 742 NX07SE 6
Situated 60m WSW of the summit of Finnarts Hill, there is a roughly circular enclosure measuring about 17.3m in diameter within a ditch (up to 1.6m broad and 0.3m deep) surrounded by a low bank; on the N there is a possible causeway across the ditch. In the 19th century a 'sepulchral urn' was found within the interior. The monument may be a ritual enclosure of Bronze Age date.
