A gently sinuous crop-mark was observed from the air in 1977, near the edge of a small terrace on the N side of the River Urie, by Strathorn farm. Two trenches dug in September 1977 showed this to represent a shallow feature 1.85m wide, with steep sides and a flat bottom 0.70m below the surface. An early boundary of arable land, or an open leet for water are possible explanations.
