Air photography has recorded the cropmarks of an unenclosed settlement on the summit and N-facing slope of the ridge to the N and NW respectively of the farmsteadings of South and East Inchmichael. The main concentration of cropmarks lies immediately N of South Inchmichael and comprises two rectangular markings, with a probable souterrain to its W, and a scatter of pits and a curving mark to the E. The curving mark of the souterrain (NO 2478 2529) is about 25m long, while the larger of the rectangular markings, which are probably the remains of rectangular buildings (NO 2480 2530), measures about 10m by 5m. In the same field (opposite East Inchmichael Cottages) there is another possible souterrain, while a scatter of other indeterminate features extends to the NW and also across the adjacent field to the E; this second souterrain (NO 2485 2540) measures at least 20m in length and about 2m across at the wider (NE) end. In the field to the W there is also what may be the remains of an incomplete ring-ditch with a narrow subterranean structure leading off its NE arc (NO 2458 2535).
