Moat Knowe
Fort; Buildings
NT 77817 13636
This site was recorded as part of the Kale Water Survey project and is largely as described previously on the date of visit. Additionally, there are the footings of at least two rectangular buildings within Moat Knowe fort, both standing within one of the terraced courts (RCAHMS 1956, fig. 196 ‘H’). The better preserved of the two buildings (NT 77850 13605) measures 6.6m from E to W by 3.4m transversely within turf and stone banks 0.2m in height by 0.8m thick. Lying immediately to the W are traces of a second, smaller building, possibly a hut.
