Situated on the NW face of Cademuir Hill, near the right bank of a tributary of the Manor Water which is not named on the OS map but which is locally known as the Kirkton Burn. It measures 110ft by 80ft within the last vestiges of a wall, a few blocks of the outer face of which still remain in situ. The entrance, in the NW side, opens into a narrow court, above which there is a platform large enough to accommodate two timber houses.
