At HU 3757 3381 a burnt mound as described. 20.0m W. of the mound, at HU 3754 3380, are the almost certain,but much mutilated,remains of a Neolithic/Bronze Age house, about 5.0m diameter. Two recesses can be recognised in the S. segment.
A rectangular structure at HU 3757 3383, the footings of which measure about 5.5m by 4.0m,may be a very old plantie-crub.
The burnt mound and house are situated within the remains of a small field system defined by field walls and clearance heaps.
A plantie-crub at HU 3752 3374 is situated on top of a circular mound through which a number of stones protrude suggesting another Ne-BA house. Surveyed at 1/2500.
