NO89SE 18 859 897 to 860 900.
A small field-system containing two hut-circles extends over an area of about 6ha on the N and W flanks of White Hill.
1. NO 8603 9004 [NO 86032 90044]. This hut-circle measures 8m in diameter within a stony bank 2.3m thick by 0.5m high with an entrance on the E.
2. NO8607 8991 [NO 86077 89917]. This hut-circle, which lies 125m to the SSE, measures 5.8m in diameter within a stony bank 1.5m thick and 0.2m high.
No complete fields are recognisable, but the area around hut-circle 1, where there are about twenty cairns (up to 4m in diameter by 0.6m in height) is partly enclosed by short lengths of stony bank; similar banks, but no cairns extend to the S along the W flank of the hill. To the W there is an enclosed field of relatively recent date, whose E boundary bank overlies an earlier lynchet.
