Spittal, Temporary Camps NT 171 572 NT15NE 30

Air survey has revealed the cropmarks of at least one, and probably two, temporary camps 450m SSE of Spittal steading. Trial trenching in 1985 showed that the larger encloses about 16.9ha and appears to pre-date the Roman road that runs along the SE flank of the Pentlands.
