These soilmarks are situated in a cultivated field on the top of the north-east facing cliffs to the south-east of Cowdrait and have been recorded on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1999). Measuring about 190 metres long and 5 metres wide, the soilmarks describe an irregular and broken arc that may be geological in origin because they respect the contour changes of the terrain at the cliff's edge, rather than cut across it.
