NO 116 244; NO12NW 73 A survey of rig and furrow was undertaken in advance of works related to the Flood Prevention Project. A small area (c 45m across) of some six rigs is evident in the middle of the North Inch.

Two larger areas of rig and furrow survive in an extension to the golf course at South Muirton Cottages. The rigs on the higher 6th and 7th fairways terminate at a possible head rig, some 5m across, and are broader, 8-13.4m across, than those on the low-lying 12th and 13th fairways, c 6m across. This area of the golf course was farmland into this century.
