NT 279 735 A condition survey was carried out on part of the NE portion of Whinny Hill after an area of grass and gorse thickets was damaged by fire. The affected area measured c200m E-W by 100m N-S and the fire had burnt out four large gorse thickets and left the areas between them scorched or badly burned. A potential low bank may be part of the larger scheme of field banks (undated) which can be traced on the plan in RCAHMS Broadsheet Number 6 (1998).
