An unusual feature, probably natural as suggested above but not conclusively so. The 'ditch' is about 45.0m long, 6.5m wide and 2.4m deep. If artificial, there is a possible causeway near the S end. The ditch does not close on the cliff at the S end, which may confirm its natural origins, or be evidence of an un finished work. The ditch is considerabaly longer than is normal in promontory forts in north Scotland. The enclosed area now measures 44.0 by 14.0m.
Surveyed at 1:2500.
